Yes, its a common form of suicide and parasuicide!.!.!.!.!.!.and its a ghastly death!.!.!.first you get sick for a day, then you feel fine, then you die horribly on the third day!.
I won't tell you the dose but its not very much!. In addition, people sometimes delay seeking help and they arrive into casualty a day later having changed their minds( parasuicidal) and then!.!.!.!.!.!.they can't be saved and they die a horrible death

Its quite toxic stuff in general!.!.!.people with arthritis who take 2 four times daily for years ( the normal dose) often have bad liver damage so they are advised to take 2 three times daily at most

!.!.its sister drug, Phenacitin was withdrawn years ago due to liver toxicity but acetaminophen( Paracetamol) got passed because it had a threshold dose for liver toxicity!.

Anyhow, don't commit suicide ever cos we'd all give you hugs here on Yahoo answers so if you're feeling low, reach out to your friends and family or even usWww@Answer-Health@Com

I had a friend who died after taking an overdose of paracetamols!. It doesn't take many!. She died of liver failure three days after the overdose, in pain and clear by now that that she didn't want to die!. She was 20!.
