Is paracetamol overdose painful?

The recommended adult single dose of paracetamol is two standard 500 mg tablets. Research shows that the common threshold for liver damage to occur from a single paracetamol overdose is 15 gms (30 tablets) although standard hospital guidelines allow an extra safety margin and assume liver damage could occur at a single overdose of 24 standard tablets or 150 mg/kg body weight, whichever is the smaller.

The overdose threshold may be lowered in a person taking certain prescription medicines, or a person who is an alcoholic or is seriously undernourished. If the overdose is spread over a period of time the threshold may be higher, as the initial paracetamol dose is effectively metabolised. (The recommended maximum dose in a 24 hour period is 4g or 8 tablets)

Can you take Tylenol with colitis?

Tylenol is not contraindicated with colitis, however you should use caution when taking it as it may cause GI upset. Always swallow the tablet whole (the coating on the outside is meant to stay in place until your stomach acid breaks it down to protect your upper GI tract). You may also take it with food or milk to decrease GI symptoms. NEVER take more than the recommended dose as it may lead to vascular collapse, renal failure and hepatic seizure. Watch out for GI bleeding- this may be evidenced by dark tarry stool, stool that looks like coffee grounds or clay colored stool. Hope this helps

Will 10000 mg of Tylenol in 24hrs kill me?

That is more than enough to cause severe liver damage, or death. If you have taken a dose that large you should see your doctor for bloodwork to check your liver function.

The maximum amount allowed daily is 4 g or 4000 mg. Therefore, taking 5000 mg in 6 hours is technically an overdose and potentially toxic. However, if it is only done once it will most likely not cause any serious damage, and the liver will repair itself. You may experience nausea or vomiting, paleness, and/or sweating as symptoms, but as previously stated the damage will most likely be minimal, and these will probably be your only symptoms. If you don't have any of those symptoms in the next day or two, you will be fine.

What will happen if you take 1 percocet and 2 Tylenol pm's?

You will sleep with little or no pain, for quite a few hours :} Percocet is a pain reliever for moderate to severe pain. While beginning users report drowsiness, some chronic patients experience the opposite effect -- wakefullness. However... Tylenol PM contains a goodly dose of diphenhydramine (more often know by the brand name Benadryl); a first generation antihistimine that acts as a strong soporific -- it'll make you sleep (and without the potential dangers of other sleeping meds). The down-side is that diphenhydramine can keep you drowsy well into the next day.

How is Tylenol eliminated from the body?

What are benefits of acetaminophen?

Why use analgesic over morphine?In very simple terms, doctors will use as little pain reliever as necessary to make the patient comfortable.

To look further, opiates are addictive and may require either direct withdrawal or a prolonged slow withdrawal designed to avoid the worst effects.

Morphine has several distinct and often troubling side effects that are lacking in a common analgesic**. The usual side effects are constipation, sexual dysfunction, and a lack of energy. These can be mild or severe depending on the individuals tolerance. If short term releif is needed and the pain is severe, morphine may be indicated. Generally, about three weeks of continued use is needed to produce withdrawal symptoms which may be severe and difficult to endure. Commonly, the withdrawal is said to be somewhat like a bad case of the flue and may last up to 10 days.

Asprin is an analgesic but has dangerous and even fatal overdose potential. 4000mg/day being an upper limit.

Morphine--or any of the opiates--when taken in higher than prescribed doses can paralize the diaphragm causing the patient to die of respritory failure... or wind up in the hospital with a mouthful of charcoal and a tube in the stomach.

How long after a glass of wine can you take Tylenol?

Depending on how many you took. If it was 1 or 2 regular strength, just wait a few hours (4-5) and a drink or two will be fine. If you're planning to go on an alcohol binge though, then you should wait a lot longer, 12 hours at the very least as you could damage your liver irreparably and that is one important piece of meat you don't want to lose.

If you took a sizeable amount of tylenol, then you should also wait a couple of hours before you drink alcohol, unless you think it's worth the risk of screwing up one of your top 5 most important organs.

Besides, it's not even that good of a buzz, mixing the two.
