Tylenol (acetaminophen) overdose: Taking more hydrocondone than prescribed is not good for two main reasons. Narcotic overdose will lead to respiratory depression and possibly death. Also, the Acetaminophen portion of the pill can damage your liver. Typically there is 325mg in each pill. Ingesting over 2000mg (2 grams) a day can damage your liver especially if repeated chronically.

Nothing now : Just don't take anymore narcotics for pain. Use Acetaminophen and Naproxen for paiin. Just don't drink alcohol while using acetaminophen. Be careful with Naproxen if you have risk factors for heart disease.
