OD, or having a pre-existing liver condition or taking other medication with acetaminophen that causes you to inadvertently OD on it.
It's true that the rates of OD are high for Acetaminophen, but if you don't have or do any of the above, it's safe.
Just take the recommended dose at the recommended schedules, not 20, and stop + see a doctor if your pain doesn't get better. It's not usually meant to treat chronic pains, and neither is Ibuprofen.
Thank you for the advice, but as someone with chronic pain, my doctor(s) do recommend I take it fairly regularly, though generally when my pain reaches more acute, flare-up levels. I use medicinal cannabis for the chronic stuff.
Then such is your doctor's advice, it takes precedence over general advice :)
