Unhealthy: Not ok. 6 pints of beer with or without acetaminophen is way, way excessive. Adding acetaminophen to a large quantity of alcohol increases risk to the liver.

Avoid in future: Avoid taking paracetamol when you are drinking or planning to drink alcohol. Alcohol increases the risk of paracetamol damaging your liver. It’s worth discussing with your doctor about taking paracetamol if you consistently drink 3 or more drinks of alcohol every day.
