2000 mg of Tylenol won’t hurt you a bit, provided you don’t take it regularly. There are a number of medical studies out there where they give people 2000 mg doses. While they don’t work any better than 1000 mg doses, and might make your stomach a *bit* sick, no adverse effects occur. That’s provided you’re not a heavy drinker…

For anyone who is still researching this question: I took 2000mg Tylenol by mistake (I have a short term memory problem and forgot I’d taken the first dose). I called poison control and they told me that 2000mg taken in one dose will not make you sick, and carries no risk of liver damage (provided you are a healthy adult and you do not drink alcohol in excess). The attendant suggested I wait 8 hours from the initial dose before taking any more Tylenol, but otherwise said there were no other precautions I needed to take.

Bottom line, don’t do it regularly … but if you do don’t panic, you’re not going to suffer any ill affects unless you already have some liver problems.

22000 mgs of Tylenol, would that have much effect”"???

Omg yall are funny but my friend just took 4 ibuprohens and 2 cold and sinus pills and an nasal infection pill! so is she gone od!

I am not a doctor - I do, however, have a pretty decent understanding of pharmacology. A lot of talk previous to this has been scaremongering and downright cruel to the original poster, who sounds like they need to see a mental health professional immediately. Taking random handfuls of pills is extremely dangerous and is a sign of underlying mental problems.

2000mg of acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, is not likely to cause any long term damage to an otherwise healthy individual. I know this was some years ago, but to address Monique:

Ibuprofen contains a different drug than Tylenol, a drug that has a lower dosage curve and thus can be far more toxic at the same dose. Four ibuprofens on it’s own will certainly put a strain on the liver - what matters most is what milligrams the ibuprofen was. If they were for instance 200mg each, equaling 800mg, then their isn’t too much to be concerned about. Doctors are able to prescribe 800mg ibuprofen tablets, which is essentially the same as four 200mg ibuprofen you would find in the store.

MONIQUE, read this carefully: please call poison control immediately, or have your friend who took the medication do so. This is no laughing matter. I cannot believe some of the cruelty of people on this forum.

It is possible that the “cold and sinus” pills your friend took along with the ibuprofen also contained a fever reducer/painkiller, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. It is imperative, CRUCIAL, that you get your friend to a doctor or emergency room right away.

The combination of the painkillers will put a strain on the liver, as will the other ingredients in the cold and sinus product which could range from cough suppressants such as dextromethrophan to antihistamines like diphenhydramine (Benadryl). Needless to say, they all put a strain on the liver - some people can take this combination and not have problems, some people can take half of what your friend took and end up with acute liver failure.

MONQIUE - your friend will not know he/she has liver trouble immediately. Often times the symptoms are slow to appear and it can take 3-4 days before the liver fully begins to shut down. It is so important that your friend gets to a doctor as soon as possible - they can administer medication to help free the liver of the burden it faces from all the medications.

MONIQUE - I wish your friend the best. This is not the time to “wait and see” because as I previously mentioned liver failure is not immediate but sort of creeps up on one, and when symptoms are apparent it is often too late to help. Understand this: when the liver starts to fail, it takes every other organ with it, including the heart.

God bless and I hope all works out well for your friend and the original poster of this question.

i want to die i have hep c and hiv please tell me how many it will take kill myself

This may be wayyyy too late, but all you motherfuckers are stupid. 2000mg is the amount your alowed in a day. If you have a healthy liver and dont do this very often than you’ll be fine man. If you drink alot or take this much on a weekly basis than you could be in trouble.

don’t worry you’ll live, unless you have some serious liver issues. i’ve done it many times.
