Could you tell me what happens if you take 20 tylenol (acetaminophen) and ibuprofen pills?

Please DO not: Please do not do this! tylenol (acetaminophen) poisoning is the number one cause for liver transplant in the us. It is a very long and chronic illness to have liver failure. Please call your doctor today.
