Please go to the ER!: Please call ems immediately! (911). What you have taken, is tylenol (acetaminophen). In large doses it can cause toxicity and potentially liver failure, which is etremely dangerous! please go. Your physician can establish for you your reasons for taking so many once your condition is stabilized.
