Please i need an answer my husband had a glass of whiskey 5 hours ago and he just took a 500mg paracetamol is this an emergency?? should i be worried??

Should be Ok: The reason for taking paracetamol (fever?, headache?, pain?) remains of concern and unless having advanced liver disease he should be OK unless getting sick for some other reason. Taking 500 mg paracetamol 5 h after drinking a glass of whiskey is not an emergency, but an underlying condition for which paracetamol was taken may become one.
