PSA: Don't take 4 packets of paracetamol in one day (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I think in UK paracetamol is sold over the counter in 28 x 500mg tablets most commonly. Larger packs or higher strengths are prescription only I think.

So 1 pack should last 3.5 days at the max adult dose of 8 per 24h - but I think it'd recommend seeing your doctor if you get into a second pack and you're still using that maximum dosage.

Generally shops will limit sales to 2 packs, but it's easy to shop around so that's no limit.

I don't know where you'd get packets of 28x500mg.
