What would happen if you did this?

Question

My friend keeps telling me she takes numbers even multiples amounts of drugs such as advil, tylenol pm's, excedrins etc. Basically, she's still mobile and she's been doing this for a reallly long time and I don't really believe her because she'd be at risk for her health. How many would you need to take to have to go to the hospital to have stomach pumped and what would happen if you did this numerous times? She takes a LOT at one time.

Answer 1

She might irritate her stomach and she is doing damage to her liver, but you can take multiple amounts of those medications.  Each one acts on the body a different way.

The actual number no one can answer because there are so many factors which come into play.

Answer 2

Tell her she needs to STOP immediately! She is causing SEVERE liver damage to her self, which soon will cause DEATH. Report her to your doctor and set her up with an appointment. She may even be addicted. ANY more than it says on the bottle is very harmful.

Answer 3

the maximum allowable daily dose of acetaminophen (3,900 mg daily).
