Alcohol effects your liver. Tylenol (paracetamol) effects your liver. There are maximum amounts per day for each of them as to what will be toxic. Taking them both anywhere remotely close to each other increases the effect on the liver. Not a good idea to use either of them anywhere near each other, particularly if you do not know how much alcohol you will be drinking.

∙ 15y agoBoth paracetamol and alcohol are detoxified by the same pathway in your liver, the cytochrome P450 oxygenase pathway. Taking both at the same time can lead to critical shutdown of this pathway as it cannot handle the double load, liver cirrhosis, failure and death. Always consult a doctor if you have drunk alcohol while using paracetamol.

Does paracetamol contain lactose?
Paracetamol has no lactose in it. The chemical make-up or structure is not similar either. There have been a small percentage of people complaining of new lactose intolerances while taking paracetamol. However, there should be no conflict with your existing intolerance issues. If you have any concerns, you should talk to your doctor before taking.
