The lethal dose of paracetamol (acetaminophen) can vary based on individual factors such as age, weight, and overall health. Generally, doses exceeding 10 grams (or 150 mg/kg in children) can lead to severe liver damage and potentially be fatal if not treated promptly. It's crucial to seek immediate medical attention if an overdose is suspected, as early intervention can significantly improve outcomes. Always use medications as directed to avoid serious health risks.
