[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Friends of our family lost their 24 year old son to acetaminophen overuse. He woke up with jaundice and died three months later of liver failure. Tylenol is poison, but it's in everything. Read labels, people.[/quote] Terrifying! The label says 4000 in 24 hours can lead to liver damage - was he exceeding that, or was he at lower levels for a number of days?[/quote] He was a skateboarder, and I guess he fell down a lot. :-) He took regular Tylenol during the day for pain and got in the habit of taking 3 Tylenol PM every night to help him sleep. I'm not sure how long he was doing this, but by the time he called his mom because the whites of his eyes had turned yellow, it was too late. Like most people, he figured over the counter pain medicine was safe. He and his parents were dumbfounded at the damage it caused. His doctors were not.[/quote]
