You see, I was feeling pretty sick, so I just downed 12-14 tylenol (all at once, never reall counted them all) - well not really TYLENOL but Acetaminophen, a no-name Tylenol copy - anyway, I was wondering if I''ll be ok, or will I have to quickly induce vommitting? I weigh 330 pounds, and I''m 6''3", if that helps any. Any help would be much appreciated.

You'll probably be fine unless you have liver/blood pressure issues. If anything, you should see a psychiatrist.

EDIT: On second thought, if you feel AT ALL strange afterwards, you should certainly see a doctor.

Hah, black_mage_s .

I''m feeling pretty woozy, but I think I''ll tough it out.

Actually I feel drunk.

Kind of cool, hmm.

How old did you say you were, again? 13? 14?

Damn.

Hmm, it won''t effect your blood pressure (that''s a theory), but yes, it will give my liver an unholy beating for sure.

It''s proven that prolonged usage of acetaminophen causes severe liver damage. Kind of sucks really, heh.

If i were you, i would induce vomiting. You took around 6000 to 7000 mg of acetaminophen. You do not want to die from an acetaminophen overdose, its very long and painful.

I'd go to the hospital. I don't know what the lethal dose is, but I think that's quite a bit over the safe amount as it were.

At the very least call a doctor. Honestly, do you really trust your life to advice you get from a game programming forum? I sure wouldn't.

I just induced vommitting for the last 10 minutes, that was not fun at all.

It''s been over an hour since I took the pills and I''m still fully awake and aware of what''s going on around me.

I haven''t come anywhere close to blacking out, and I''m not suffering from any pain.

Should I be ok?

You know, that''s reall not all that surprising, considering. Anyway, if you felt drunk, probably go to a doctor.
