Accidentally OD'd on paracetamol - Halp - Dan! - 16-12-2012
Srs - Just took 1x500mg paracetamol tablet for my ringing ear ache and then drunk most of a cup of lempsip for my shitty head cold, which has 1000mg of paracetamol in it.
Will I be okay?
Thanks.

I'm not joking here btw
Keep your body really well hydrated over the next couple of hours mate and you should be fine, get Hannah to keep an eye on you if she's with you tonight

I think its when you take like 500mg a day for weeks that its dangerous

You will be fine dude, I've take 4x 500mg at once before. I was fine

You'll be fine, recommended max. doses are there to prevent dickheads from going close to the limit where they may do damage to themselves. In hospital you'll regularly find the limit on the back of your regular packet is doubled or tripled anyway!!
One of the perks of going out with a doctor!

Fooby knows.
There was this one time where he tripped and fell literally into a pharmacy and accidentally managed to ingest several thousand grammes of Paracetamol, along with enough Oestrogen to turn a penis into a vagina....

You can OD on paracetamol but you need a fair old amount.
The reason you can only buy 2 boxes of 16x 500mg tablets is to stop suicidal people going to the pharmacy and being able to buy enough to kill themselves. So if 32 x 500mg (about 10 times what you took) is unlikely to kill you id say youll be fine.
Recommended safe doses are usually about half of what is actually safe. If you think about it theyer for anyone from puberty upwards so if 1000mg is safe for a tiny 6 stone 15 year old bird id say that me being almost 3 times that size could pretty safely have 3 times that dosage although im yet to try more than double.
Apparently paracetamol is not good for your liver but neither is home brew.

i have never seen the point in that as if you wanted to kill yourself that way you just need to go around all the shops and buy 2 boxes then you would have more than enough to kill yourself but
RE: Accidentally OD'd on paracetamol - Halp - Ruan - 16-12-2012
Thing with doing that with Paracetamol is that you're more likely to suceed in making yourself horribly ill, vomiting everywhere rather than actually killing yourself... There's much better ways of killing yourself with paracetamol...
It's like trying to finish yourself off with a water pistol :/
