Anorexia as a symptom of paracetamol overdose?

Question

I just read on a website that a symptom of paracetamol overdose is anorexia?

I do not understand that? Does that mean they suddenly lose alot of weight?

Can anyone give me information on the stages following paracetamol overdose, as in the signs/symptoms & what treatment options are depending on the time since they were taken?

Thanks

Answer 1

No the word anorexia as a symptom generally means a decreased appetite.  It does NOT mean you will lose weight.

I should probably point out that if you have anorexia nervosa and take a paracetamol overdose thinking you will suddenly lose a lot of weight you will most likely die of liver failure.
