is it possible that i overdosed and am i in danger of liver failure or am i a moment ago worrying too much
Answers:
Worrying too much.
the maximum day after day dose of acetaminophen is 4000mg or 4 grams (same thing). you took 1500mg. when taking that much make sure to eat some food so as not to upset your stomach. perpetually taking 4000mg or going over that amount can cause liver damage/failure... what you took did not put you at risk for it however Source(s): 5th year pharmacy student
You should be fine.

The recommened dosage is 500 - 1000mg every 4 hours.

You took 500mg 3 hours later, which is within the safe constrain.

But it is good that you are worrying about it, since acetaminophen OD can have serious results (eg death).
