Do not induce vomiting OP, that is not how you deal with overdoses.
I disagree greatly.
I don't really care, because you're wrong. Acetaminophine overdose occurs around 4000-5000mg, not at 1500mg, and is treated with liquid charcoal. A doctor (key word there...note how I didn't say "a kid on the internet whose mother is an RN") may recommend induced vomiting in emergency cases where immediate action must be taken...that doesn't apply to this scenario at all.
Source:
1. I have taken 1600mg of acetaminophine at once
2. My sister attempted an overdose on acetaminophine to commit suicide, and ingested roughly 7000mg at once. She was treated with liquid charcoal, because even at 7000mg she wasn't in immediate danger.
3. Verified with 3 separate sites before posting my original comment here
I was wrong, you where right chill okay?
