Wow! No, it is not safe to add more Acetaminophen to the mix within 8 hours of taking it, according to the FDA. Actually, you should not exceed 1,000mgs in any 8 hour period, and no more than 3,000mgs in any 24 hour period. Taking more than that could result in liver damage, liver failure and Acetaminophen toxicity, which could be fatal.

It would be best to wait and make sure you doctor knows how much you've been taking.

Did you experience any adverse effects?
