Have I poisoned myself?

Took a single paracetamol for a headache. Walked the dog round the block for ten minutes and forgot I’d had it. When I got back DH poured me a Friday night vodka and I drank it. Should I be worried? This might sound silly but I’m prone to panic attacks and I’m freaking out.

Not at all. I take much stronger meds and drink a lot more on them!

It's bad for the liver but no you haven't

myidentitymycrisis · 19/07/2019 22:39

No, you haven’t

Absolutely not. You will 100% be fine.

Subtledifference · 19/07/2019 22:39

No, you will be fine. I'm sure lots of people (myself included) have done this before with no I'll effects.

You're fine OP don't worry. There's no serious interaction between a couple of paracetamol & alcohol - people take it for hangovers after all.

*ill effects

No you'll be fine. I have just topped up a glass of wine with neat gin by accident .. tasted disgusting but I will live (I think). Don't worry.

usernameee · 19/07/2019 22:41

I take paracetamol when drunk ahaha you'll be fine

jomaIone · 19/07/2019 22:43

Not even a slight concern op.

SparklesandFlowers · 19/07/2019 22:46

Fewer medications react with alcohol than people think. You'll be fine, OP.

IHaveBrilloHair · 19/07/2019 22:47

No, there's no issue at all.

CandyCaines · 19/07/2019 22:49

Thanks. I have panic attacks about the stupidest things. I will try to calm down!

Sometimes people take paracetamol before going to bed after a LOT of alcohol to stop hangover coming on!

I'd think nothing of taking two paracetamol after 2-3 glasses wine - you'll be fine.

Hezz · 19/07/2019 22:58

I wash paracetamol down with wine if I've got a headache at night. Didn't know there was an issue with it.

Chipsandcheesecake · 19/07/2019 22:59

You'll be fine, I've drank loads on a night out and still been drunk in the morning, popped a paracetamol and been fine. Panic attacks are THE worst. I get them too, I can go from being fine to dying in the next 30 seconds just like that. The fear is real every time 💐💜
