Acetaminophen causes an alarming number of cases of liver damage, acute liver failure and death each year, to the tune of 26,000 hospitalizations, 56,000 emergency room visits, 100,000 calls to poison control centers, and over 450 deaths. Even when taken at the recommended doses, acetaminophen can still cause major problems; however, it’s a very profitable drug – which seems to be fueling the lack of emphasis on these risks.

This has been known since the mid-70's. The problem is people medicating and not strictly adhering to dosage information.

Over-the-counter meds can be very dangerous.
 Quoting: Jon Titor ™


That and a lot of the druggies that abuse pain meds like Vicodin and Percocet/Norco are taking pills containing a shit ton of acetaminophen. Druggies tend to take way more than one pill per sitting, many sittings per day. Whenever I’m given those medications after a surgery or something I always do a cold water filtration on the pills to get rid of the Tylenol and instead take ibuprofen or alieve with it.

On the one hand, I am so glad this is being talked about, but on the other hand, I wish it had been revealed 10 years ago. My brother died from liver failure due to taking Tylenol. The sad part of it was he was in a lot of pain from rodeo injuries, and wouldn't take prescription pain meds. His DOCTOR told him to take Tylenol, but gave him no warnings about the drug's toxicity.

Many doctors are incompetent and stupid, but the drug companies are CRIMINAL in their hiding this kind of information.

Remember many years ago, when Tylenol was pulled from the shelves after several bottles were poisoned? Turns out the pills were as toxic as the rat poison used in the tampering.

"ibuprofen" is the dangerous one and the one this thread should be about.

Ibuprofen is Indeed deadly! Acetaminophen is not, and is safe to take (as directed).

Re: Acetaminophen warning: A leading cause of acute liver failure
I have aspirin, naproxen, ibuprofen and tylenol with codeine.

The ibuprofen was good in high doses for toothache.

The Tylenol with codeine is effective, but saved for real emergencies.

I haven't taken any pain meds at all for at least a month as I believe they all have side effects.

Maybe they had a problem before they took the acetaminophen??
I don't see how it would cause liver failure, I just see a campaign to destroy one of the best medications that is over the counter.
You need to remember that cancer is 100% curable, but the cancer fatality rate is about 97%, so try and find some credibility from the source before condemning something that actually will help you.
