A member asked:

Is digesting 14 pills of 500mg paracetamol in the course of 36 hours dangerous for a body weight of 51kg?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Paracetamol ?'s: Paracetamol is acetaminophen (also Tylenol in the USA). A dose of "14 500 mg pills in 36 hours may be fatal, and if taken , the antidote is only effective to lessen liver damage if taken within 24 hours of ingestion. Go to an ER for treatment as soon as possible if actually ingested.
