Need medical supervision.
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thank you for posting the query.
Firstly,sorry for the situation that you have going through.
I would like to extend heart-felt moral support to you.
You can talk to me about any issue anytime but it is my sincere advice to you that LIFE IS PRECIOUS and you should not take such impulsive decisions within such a short period of time.
As far as panadol is concerned,the maximum dosage that can be consumed is 4000mg per day (6-8 tablets of panadol).
You have consumed almost double the safety dose.
Even if you do not have significant adverse symptoms right now,but it may affect your liver and kidney functions in long run.
However embarassed you feel,you still should go to ER and be under medical supervision for atleast 48 hours.
As an emergency measure,try and induce vomitting right now. This will remove the bulk of the medicine instantly from the body.
Drink plenty of water. Do not be alone.Have someone from your family or friends with you.
I hope the answer was useful.
You can get back to me anytime whenever you experience any symptoms.
Kind regards.
Best wishes.
