Answers:
yes he could do damage to his liver or kidneys, the maximum daily dose recommended is not more than 4 grams per day, or 2 grams per morning if he consumes alcohol. 2 grams is 4 of the 500 mg pills most people take. your husband is overdosing and should see his physician to see if there is a safer alternative to thieve care of his pain.

He's slowly overdosing on Tylenol. You cannot reverse the damage to his kidneys and liver.
Write his doctor with this included so he's aware of what your husband is consuming so the doctor can make change immediately.
Most TYLENOL overdoses, don't die from the overdose...they die days, weeks and even months afterwards because of the damage done to the liver.
He can get a blood experiment for his liver function and kidney function. If it comes back damaged....ask the doctor what treatment if any is available.
The damage is accellerated if he drinks or combines any other drugs near it. He should be seeing the doctor for a new painkiller that doesn't have acetominophen within it.
If the directions say take 2 every 4 hours, you don't take it as needed...you bear it every 4 hours and set your alarm to keep it balanced. It has to enjoy time to build up consistently to give you steady pain control.
As soon as you change the directions, you are an user. You aren't taking it as prescribed and you could then get charged with fraud and consumption of an improper substance.
That's what's happening in the states if you can't produce either your prescription script or doctors script, they are charging the addict regardless if it was a simple mistake; it won't be too long before they charge the spouses who know this is taking place and not reporting it to the doctor.
Your husband have no clue about pain killers and is abuse drugs (I mean this with concern and not arrogance). Ask him what difference it makes to purloin 8 Tylenol 3's and then add more Tylenol when it already doesn't work.,
There is ACETOMINOPHEN (Tylenol, Panadol, Anacin, Excedrin, Majalorito, Robaxacet, Parafon Forte, & Ultracet).
There is ACETYSALICYLIC ACID (Adalat, Alka Seltzer, Bayer Aspirin, Entrophen, Robaxacil, & Anadin).
There is IBUPROFEN (Advil, Motrin, Medipren, Nuprin, Caldolor, & Emuprofen).
1. Take the first painkiller, Acetominophen. In the event you still experience stomach-ache after taking the maximum dose (usually 2 or a certain # of mg.), you can switch and add a different family of painkillers.
2. Take the second local anaesthetic, Acetysalicylic Acid. In the event you still experience pain after taking the maximum dose (usually 2 or a certain # of mg.), you can switch and add a different relatives of painkillers.
3. If you take the third painkiller, Ibuprofen, and you still experience pain after taking the maximum dose (usually 2 or a absolute # of mg.), YOU NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR.
If your pain cannot be controlled by all 3 families of drugs, you may stipulation something a lot stronger to control your pain and only a doctor can prescribe it to you undamagingly.
I hope this helps explain the drugs to you that he could take in place of other Acetominophen.
FYI ~Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is not an NSAID because although it is an antipyretic and analgesic, it is not an anti-inflammatory.
it does the liver bad, just like if you bear alot of 800 Ibprofen, it damages the liver.
Unfortunately, large doses of acetaminophen can do liver damage that may not be reversible depending on the severity. There are other medication out there if your husbands situation is persistent and please check strength food stores for better alternatives.
Goodbye liver.
If he's doing this every night, he could cause serious liver damage. He desires to stop this ASAP.
Yes. That is far too much Tylenol, and it is very bad for his liver. Liver damage habitually doesn't show any signs until it is too late and irreparable damage has be done. I would recommend that he get a blood test right away to see if he's done any permanent injure to his liver.
I would also recommend that he ask the doctor who prescribed him the Tylenol 3 if he can get a stronger pain killer, and preferably one short any acetaminophen in it. If his doctor is reluctant to prescribe that, then he might want to ask for a referral to a pain guidance clinic. If he can't sleep at night without that much codeine, then it sounds to me as if he requests much stronger pain medicine than he has be given.
Instead of Tylenol pm to fall asleep, your husband might want to try melatonin, which you can find in the dietary supplements section of a grocery store. It's a biddable cure for insomnia, and much gentler on the system than the Tylenol pm.
