Asked Dh to pick me up some decongestants today as I have a terrible head cold
He gave me some paracetamol before he went out in the mean time
He brought home some sudafed and luckily handed me the box instead of the pills themselves with a drink
Just as I was about to open the box, I quickly spotted one of the added ingredients was paracetamol which meant I couldn't take the pills until now which is 4 hours after my initial dose of paracetamol
Dh didn't notice it at all
Now I know common sense would say to read the box carefully to make sure you know exactly what was in it but hands up honestly who does that? I do because I'm paranoid but I know many who don't.
So AIBU to think that paracetamol overdose is too easy sometimes with it being added to a lot of medications
