Best Answer

Permanent liver damage or death is probable unless this person is/was treated with 17 doses of acetycysteine. Even then, the person is generally kept inpatient for at least 4 days so the medical team can assess treatment.

The acetycysteine isn't always an antidote - depending upon the amount of Tylenol (acetaminophen) taken. There is a nomogram that the hospital will use to see based upon current blood levels and when the drug was ingested. Liver transplant is possible but suicide patients aren't typically put on the transplant list.

No, it doesn't happen quickly. The patient may seem fine and then crash on the 3rd day. It is imperative that this person seek medical treatment immediately.

Is it harmful to take Tylenol after drinking alcohol?

Yes! The acetaminophen in Tylenol in combination with alcohol is toxic to your liver. This can kill you, and at the least poses a serious risk of doing permanent damage to your liver. NEVER take Tylenol or any other acetaminophen containing drug before, during, or after drinking alcohol. In fact.. you can drink a little bit of alcohol (no excess) with low doses of Tylenol (if you take it not regularly)... if you're not that old, your liver will be able to take it without any problem.

What happens when acid gets in your eye?

Always wear your safety goggles in the science laboratory. Concentrated acids will quickly attack the proteins in your eye and cause permanent damage to your eyesight. You will likely be blinded by a concentrated acid. Use the eyewash station as quickly as possible and maintain the rinse for at lease 15 minutes. Diluted acids will cause damage more slowly and permanent damage may be avoided if rinsed quickly enough. Don't chance it. Please listen to you instructor when she tells you to put the goggles on and keep them on.
