In this case, the Acetaminophen is much more dangerous than the Hydrocodone and the answer is yes.

Acetaminophen is toxic in amounts over 4 grams in 24 hours and at this dosage, that would be only 8 tablets.

14 tablets would equal 7grams of it.

Even if it does not result in a fatal overdose, the use of such an amount can result in severe damage to various body organs, such as the stomach, liver and kidneys.

Just so we r clear I wasn't trying to kill myself but I did take 20 hydrocodones 10/325 at one time just yesterday and I'm still alive. I've taken 30 of the same ones in one day, throughout the day and I'm still not dead.

Theres a reason your taking so many. And although we dont mean to kill ourselves, it can always happen. I used to be a heroin user. I was around people who almost died and its not like you can just bring yourself back. We all know this world is hard but addiction is just going to get worse. Ive seen ugly things but I can assure you getting problems resolved and making a few changes, maybe a nice inpatient for 30 days will set you on the path. P.s. you dont have to stereotype people who get clean either. If anyone can understand pain its me. Ive prostituted, been held hostage, been lost, confused in this life on this planet that flies thru space. Enjoy the ride. Cannabis is a better mental option personally when used responsibly. It also cures cancer by creating an oil from it, etc. p.s. your not alone in this world, more people understand you than you think.

These doses are enough to do serious damage to your body, if not kill you. I don't know your situation, but I do know that I wanted to end things , and almost did. I was brought to the end of myself. That is where God came in. I asked Jesus Christ into my heart , and repented of all my sins. My life changed drastically. Not all at once, but my life has never been the same. Jesus died for you . Read John 3:16. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son that who soever believeth in Him should not Parrish, but have everlasting life. I still go through trials in life, but God is with me every step of the way. Heaven is waiting. Joy unspeakable, and fdull of glory is waiting for all of us, who except Jesus Christ into our lives. Bless you so much. God does love you, and He is waiting for you to reciece Him. He will help you, and give you the strength , and live you long for in .Him.

dude don't do that, if you have access to such a large amount of hydrocodone then swap it with your doctor for another stronger medication, it's pretty tough to consciously take enough hydrocodone to die but the tylenol there will either kill you or destroy your organs so bad that you WILL really wish you were dead. Don't do it.

you tell me when you have a 34 year old daughter whose last remarks on a phone message are "I hope you die" would not be enough for me to end it all. I have grandchildren 15.13, 12 and 9 and a daughter who lies and says I am not important in their lives and I am a single parent, who has gone above and beyond what should be expected of a parent. what would you do... I don't really see any hope at this point

To answer your question, no, I don't think that that would kill you. It IS however more than enough to make SURE that you will WISH You WERE dead! Why you ask? Well to start with that much acetaminophen, (that's Tylenol for you kiddies) will absolutely cause severe, LIFE LONG kidney and liver problems, not to mention stomach, brain AND heart problems, BIG TIME!! If you really need help, get it! Have a great day and take care of yourself, HOUSE

Your grandkids need you and can you imagine what this would do to them? Every time I feel like I want to leave this horrible old world I think of all the faces in my life and my mind that love me and then I realize that I'm being selfish. Please reconsider .

How can you take that much and still be alive? That is disturbing. I thought it would take less than that.

I have lung cancer and the Drs are just sending me to one specialist after another. I found out I have lung cancer in November and they still have not started treatments. It seems no one cares, they just want u to get tests after tests and do nothing. I am so depressed I just want them to do something. I have seen so many Drs and they just keep passing the buck. I spend most of my time just waiting for an appointment. I am 70 years old and have COPD, also only weigh 93 lbs.

What would happen if I took 100 Norco 10/325 Acetaphenimin plus 200 1.0 Xanax? Would it be enough to do the job? I could add a liter of Vodka to be sure. I'm ready to end it and not wind up surviving in a psychiatric hospital. I've had three insulin overdoses in the past year and even though they were supposed to be lethal, they saved me and locked me up for weeks each time because my attempts were supposed to be lethal. Would a bullet in the brain pan be more efficient?

It actually varies by person but I've had 45 tens in one day and had three the next morning so there really isn't a certain amount for everyone

Oh bless your little heart, FortiesGirl! I just wanna hug ya!! I could just about have written your story myself, except I only have one kiddo yep... One stinking kid I raised myself - dad and I divorced when he was 9 mos, and dad didn't want him again until new wife found out how much child support I was getting then all of a sudden when our son was 12 he acted like a father of the year for all of 2 weeks, support was reduced, he disappeared for another 4 years... Yadda yadda... Now dad is the hero, mom is nothing, I have MS, Alec is getting ready to deploy (he is 18, my only of course and in the Army) and came home for 2 weeks - oh, around mothers day, and I didn't hear a peep from him!!! I have no, NO, other family, never remarried for his sake. I'm very sick. Wait, I DID hear from him in Jan... He needed help buying a car which I obliged, and when I asked if he asked his dad, his words were "my selfish sonofab**** dad won't help anyone but himself! I hate him!!" He "hates" him but I help him buy cars, raise him, sacrifice as only us mother's know how and when I text and tell him I'm having a bad relapse, I get no response. I put my dog of 13 years to sleep last week and I wonder... Why do I want to continue living? I'm in so much pain? Nobody cares? I lost all my friends a few years ago after I was raped and they didn't want me to press charges because of who he was in our town and "I'd ruin his life"... I pressed charges, and lost their friendship. I just don't see why it's worth living...besides my body pain, the pain in my heart is too great, for far too long...

I feel for you! I feel lonely most days bc I can't do what everyone else does. The pain sucks bad enough but then depression on top of that. People DO NOT care is correct. I get sick of feeling like im judged all the time. The stares and comments from my husband mostly.. I was having terrible cramps yesterday and he wouldn't kiss me goodnight! How immature it is that? Our kids are 26 and 33. Sooo.. I bought me a puppy. Lol. No seriously, can they just burn the nerve endings? You take care.

Hydrocodone comes in different amount. The answer is based on the brand, or variety Vicodin (has 500 mg, so 8, according the ncbi), but there is Norco, (Norco which has 350mg and other types, so 13). Tolerance changes so that should be taken into accout. Someone that is very used to taking this medication may have different reactions. That being said 4 gm can be toxic to your liver. (Hope this helps someone).

I am in constant physical and emotional pain. I devoloped PTSD 6 months ago because after borrowing my husbands phone I accidentally discovered he was active on every smutty dating site out there including gay sites. Upon my discovery rather then dealing with my pain and anger he had me thrown in jail on trumped up domestic violence charges. My public defender suggested I plead guilty. After two months my husband came back. By this time I was facing eviction and car repossesion. We recieved help from our church and besides losing our only car anytime we at least were gonna have a roof over our head. I couldn't stop asking questions of my husband about what happened. The only things I know is what I found online. After vowing to never leave again he left the other night and checked himself in to a mental facility. I'm the one who actually ahould have done that. He has requested the only person to contact him be his son and I know he will never tell the truth to the drs. who are treating him. I can't face the landlord...people from church...anybody again over this. I refuse to die homeless and destitute. The PTSD has rendered me unable to work. I get it. Why is it if someone has terminal cancer it's ok to end their suffering but not ok to end the suffering of a terminal broken heart?

Thank you for saying this about neuropathic pain SFSN. No one can possibly understand this type of pain until you've been through it yourself. I have been dealing with this for 50 years now and am only 53 years old. I take hydrocodone and other drugs that are prescribed for neuropathic pain for almost 10 years now. Nothing really helps. There are days that I wish I could just die because the pain is unbearable. People who are close to you don't want to hear how much you are hurting again, friends leave because they also don't want to hear it or deal with it. Doctors don't give 2 craps, all they care about is getting you in and out of their office. They do whatever they can to shut you up quickly. Pain management doctors are an even bigger joke. All they care about is writing the prescription so they get their cut. They don't care about fixing your pain. I suffer from rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. I also had to have a hip replaced 2 times on the same side. Now I can't walk because there was nerve damage to the leg because of the surgery. When I was 2 years old a drunk driver hit us and killed 3 people. I was hurt so severely, I was in the hospital for 6 mos. I didn't get a penny out of the accident because he was not only drunk but uninsured too. I've also had back surgery due to a cyst growing inside my spinal column (from being thrown through the windshield of the vehicle) which made the nerves die in my leg (same side as the hip replacement), I've had a hysterectomy in the last 3 years. They thought it was cancer because there was a huge cyst the size of a grapefruit showing up in the ultrasound. It wasn't cancer, just a cyst. There are days now where I wish it had been an aggressive cancer because all my pain would be over now. My kids (28 and 33) don't care, they're so used to Mom being sick all the time, they could care less about me. I have no other family, no mom, dad or brothers or sisters. I hear from my kids maybe 1 time every 3-4 months. I can't walk without assistance, I can't drive because of the nerve damage as I can't feel my foot on the brake or gas pedal. I'm in constant pain. How much fun am I to be around? None...therefore my kids don't come around (I'm assuming this is why). It's depressing and I see no light at the end of the tunnel. I used to be a gorgeous woman...am told that I still am but I sure don't feel gorgeous. I want to die.
