Beer drinker here. Mixed Tylenol like an idiot. Advice?
I developed a tooth abscess yesterday. I took some extra strength Tylenol (1000mg total) around 4pm. By 9pm I was like meh whatever and drank five beers trying to just go to sleep and ignore the pain. Woke up around 1am and the pain was punch-the-pillow type pain. In my anger I downed another 1000mg. I tossed and turned all night and finally got into the dentist in the morning. I’m now on proper antibiotics but took another 1000mg dose at around 3pm today. (Its 9pm now) I also took around 800mg of ibuprofen at the dentist’s suggestion to get the inflammation down while the antibiotic did it’s thing.
Once the pain started to subside today, I’m now freaking the fuck out that I overdid it. I’ve drank A LOT of water today and my urine seems normal. It’s clear. Frequency seems about right. My stomach is upset but I mean that could be one of many things not to include the antibiotics.
It’s been almost 24 hours since I mixed all of it. I feel ok? I mean I’m tired from not sleeping and being in pain but otherwise I don’t feel “bad”. I’m in my 30s. I’ve drank beer for years. I rarely take Tylenol, hardly ever. Last time I took it was maybe three years ago, which is why it didn’t occur to me that mixing the two was a terrible idea. Browsing the internet this evening reading about it has me freaking that I’m going to get kidney failure. So now I’m having anxiety lol
Anyone have experience with this stuff?
