A member asked:
Can taking too much pain reliver or any pill can damage my brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course: Too high dosing of any pain reliever has significant consequences, such as tylenol (acetaminophen) causing liver failure, or nsaid's causing hypertension, or cardiac problems. Certainly, an overdose with cessation of respiration and coma, not uncommon. If you are suffering so much pain (from any reason), that your meds are not sufficient, discuss at length with your doctor.
