Normally, they say it happens after a certain dosage, and it's a bit like a cliff effect: go a little over that dosage and suddenly you have liver damage.
However, surely this dosage would be radically different between different people: a 40kg woman is not like a 100kg man.
And finally, if this drug is SO dangerous if you have a little too much of it, I have zero confidence that it's at all safe at ANY normal dosage (esp. since the dangerous dosage is very close to the normal prescribed dosage; it's not like you have to down a whole bottle at once to have a big problem). I simply don't see how this drug should even be legal for OTC use, or why it should be used at all in most situations when there's better and safer alternatives: aspirin, ibuprofen, etc. Personally, I'm simply not going to take the risk. Why bother?
