Yes! That is so bad for you. Think of all that artificial sweetener just collecting into your liver and reeking havoc. Who knows what man made chemicals can do to a human over a period of time especially excessive amounts. Just drink water.

Liver damage, as previously stated. However, the effects are magnified drastically in some people when acetaminophen is taken while alcohol is present in the system -- to the point where even two or three standard tablets can cause liver failure.

Well I would wonder how many over the amount you take? Some is alright. I think the ones I take say 8 per day, my doctor says 2 per hour, all day if needed. The first two answers make no sense to me. The only way you would throw up is by having toooooooo many(like a full bottle or more) as for the other well, gee whiz any food or supplement will do that.... Talk with your doctor if you find you need more than the bottle directs, as it could be something else that needs attention. Good Luck

NO you will NOT die, you can just drink a glass of milk and try to trow up. 5 pills are not to many, but you have to be carefully With medications They can create liver or kidney  damage. If you still feel funny after trowing up make sure to check with a Dr.

Well, there are quite a few but remember your doctor is the best judge of that.  Ask him/her to run a liver panel on you if you are concerned.  Takes about five minutes and is the best approach.\n\nFirst off, I would look at things I'm doing that could cause liver disfunction - drinking alchol, medications, not enough exercise, etc... but some symptoms are:\n\nSome common liver disease symptoms include the following, each of which are described briefly below:\n\njaundice \ncholestasis \nliver enlargement \nportal hypertension \nascites \nliver encephalopathy \nliver failure \nWhat is jaundice?\nJaundice is a yellow discoloration of the skin and eye whites due to abnormally high levels of bilirubin (bile pigment) in the bloodstream. Urine is usually dark because of the bilirubin excreted through the kidneys. High levels of bilirubin may be attributed to inflammation or other abnormalities of the liver cells or blockage of the bile ducts. Sometimes jaundice is caused by the breakdown of a large number of red blood cells, which can occur in newborns. Jaundice is usually the first sign, and sometimes the only sign, of liver disease.\n\nWhat is cholestasis?\nCholestasis is reduced or stopped bile flow. Bile flow may be blocked inside or outside the liver. Symptoms may include:\n\njaundice \ndark urine \npale stool \nbone loss \neasy bleeding \nitching \nsmall, spider-like blood vessels visible in the skin \nenlarged spleen \nfluid in the abdominal cavity \nchills \npain from the biliary tract or pancrea \nenlarged gallbladder \nSome causes of cholestasis include:\n\nhepatitis \nalcoholic liver disease \nprimary biliary cirrhosis \ndrug effects \nhormonal changes during pregnancy \na stone in the bile duct \nbile duct narrowing \nbile duct cancer \npancreatic cancer \ninflammation of the pancreas \nWhat is liver enlargement?\nLiver enlargement is usually an indicator of liver disease, although there are usually no symptoms associated with a slightly enlarged liver (hepatomegaly). Symptoms of a grossly enlarged liver include abdominal discomfort or "feeling full."\n\nWhat is portal hypertension?\nPortal hypertension is abnormally high blood pressure in the portal vein, which supplies the liver with blood from the intestine. Portal hypertension may be due to increased blood pressure in the portal blood vessels or resistance to blood flow through the liver. Portal hypertension can lead to the growth of collateral vessels that connect to the general circulation, bypassing the liver. When this occurs, substances that are normally removed by the liver pass into the general circulation. Symptoms of portal hypertension may include:\n\na distended abdominal cavity (ascites) \nbleeding of the varicose veins at the lower end of the esophagus and in the stomach lining \nWhat is ascites?\nAscites is fluid build-up in the abdominal cavity, caused by fluid leaks from the surface of the liver and intestine. Ascites due to liver disease usually accompanies other liver disease characteristics such as portal hypertension. Symptoms of ascites may include a distended abdominal cavity, which causes discomfort and shortness of breath. Causes of ascites may include:\n\nliver cirrhosis (especially cirrhosis caused by alcoholism) \nalcoholic hepatitis \nchronic hepatitis \nobstruction of the hepatic vein \nAscites can also be caused by non-liver disorders.\n\nWhat is liver encephalopathy?\nLiver encephalopathy is the deterioration of brain function due to toxic substances building up in the blood, which are normally removed by the liver. Liver encephalopathy is also called portal-systemic encephalopathy, hepatic encephalopathy, or hepatic coma. Symptoms may include:\n\nimpaired consciousness \nchanges in logical thinking, personality, and behavior \nmood changes \nimpaired judgement \ndrowsiness \nconfusion \nsluggish speech and movement \ndisorientation \nloss of consciousness \ncoma \nWhat is liver failure?\nLiver failure is severe deteriorat

ouch, lots of misinformation in these answers. \n\ndiet products are not harmful to the liver, and have not been proven to be harmful to human in any way (except those with phenylketonuria). the most common claim is that they cause cancer, which is false (see the link below). there is no way for them to "clog up" your body or urinary tract.\n\nyou are right to be concerned with taking tylenol or any product containing acetominophen (many cold remedies have it). tylenol can be fatal to anyone if they take too much, and the cause of death is liver failure. \n\nyou are definitely a special case, with multiple liver disorders AND allergies to other pain meds. you really need to call your gastroenterologist and ask them whta the maxiumum dose of tylenol you should have is. if the transplanted liver is functionally normally, you should be able to take it, although I can understand wanting to be extra careful with your gift.

you should NOT take 2 more.....too much tylenol builds in the system and taxes on the liver.......you will become drowsy.......it is best to wait  it out or take 400 mg. of motril or advil......these are in a different catagory as tylenol and work in a different way on your system......if you don't have motrin in the house or available to you at this time.....drink half a glass of milk and try napping in a dark  and quiet room for a couple hours.......good luck!

Saw U recent Q first & noticed after search found this.  This interested me 2 know 4 friend who take Iron supplement & how much is proper & what is over-dose.  Hope this helps & Also answers ur other Q today!\n\n Signs of iron overdose include severe vomiting, racing heart, bloody diarrhea, stomach cramps, bluish lips and fingernails, pale skin, and weakness. If overdose is suspected, the patient should contact poison control and/or seek emergency medical attention immediately. ... on uptake is tightly regulated by the human body, which has no physiologic means of excreting iron and regulates iron solely by regulating uptake. However, too much ingested iron can damage the cells of the gastrointestinal tract directly, and may enter the bloodstream by damaging the cells that would otherwise regulate its entry. there, it causes damage to cells in the heart, liver and elsewhere. This can cause serious problems, including the potential of death from overdose, and long-term organ damage in survivors.\n   Humans experience iron toxicity above 20 milligrams of iron for every kilogram of weight, and 60 milligrams per kilogram is a lethal dose.[5] Over-consumption of iron, often the result of children eating large quantitities of ferrous sulfate tablets intended for adult consumption, is most common toxicological cause of death in children under six. The DRI lists the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for adults as 45 mg/day. For children under fourteen years old the UL is 40 mg/day.\n      If iron intake is excessive iron overload disorders can some-times result, such as hemochromatosis. Iron overload disorders require a genetic inability to regulate iron uptake; however, many people have a genetic susceptibility to iron overload without realizing it and without knowing a family history of the problem. For this reason, people should not take iron supplements unless they suffer from iron deficiency and have consulted a doctor. Blood donors are at special risk of low iron levels and are often recommended to supplement their iron intake.\n      The medical management of iron toxicity is complex. One element of the medical approach is a specific chelating agent called deferoxamine, used to bind and expel excess iron from the body in case of iron toxicity."

Well I get palpitations and start going into panic mode when I drink it. I gave up on it a long time ago. It's full of the nastiest crap you could possibly put in your body. Drink redbull if you dont mind risking your life. You're better off drinking lots of alcholol. At least the effects are more long term.

yes you can OD on pain killers BUT the ppl that do take mass amounts at one time and are usually on other drugs when that happens.  To answer that question.\nAs for your pain...NO I am not a Dr but between my hubby and I have been on/off pain killers for various injuries, surgries etc.  \nNo you should not take 4 at once to many!  Pain killers will build up in your system or basically catch up to you.  I would wait until the time and then take 3 again.  You will be fine and you will still be following his orders.  \nNow for your 3rd prob.  Your DR that your under his care will not take calls??  Again and he is too booked to answer a two second question?  I would considering taking my health to someone that cares a little bit more.  The DR sounds like he has more patients than he even cares to be bothered with...not a good feature in a Doc.\nOne other thing..Do not drink alchol while your on pain killers...your 3 pills will make you spin.

Yes, it can kill you. It depends on your body weight, metabolism, and the number of pills, but people will go into liver failure and die from overdosing on those pills.

I recommend talking to a pediatrician. They can give you the best answers for that. Remember everyone's body chemical is different. What may be toxic to one may not be toxic to another. \nI remember when I was in school, the school was only allowed to administer tylenol 3 times in one semester because they were finding that too much is not good for the liver and kidneys.

Makes no sense to take 2 short acting narcotics together.  Take one of them and wait 4-6 hours and then take the other one and see which one controlled your pain better.  Then stick with the one that works better and follow the doctor's instruction.  If neither of them work well talk to your doctor.  Do not take more that 8 of either or in combination because Tylenol overdose is also possible.  Also make  sure your doctor knows exactly what you are taking including over the counter stuff.
