Asprin overdose?
Answer:
Fortunately, he didn't take a fatal dose, and probably only had a little cinchonism rather than the full-blown acidosis that we used to see more commonly with the major overdoses. It's done, now, at any rate, and perhaps he'll find a more appropriate method of dealing with things.
(And it's acetaminophen/paracetamol that causes liver damage, not aspirin.)
If you havent been sick yet, try and force yourself to be. I did a similar thing when I was a teen and when I ate some food, I was extremely sick and felt back to normal within 24 hours.
About 12 to 18 hours I would think.
A friend of mine took a whole bottle and it did nothing to him.
aspirin damages the liver, there may be some long term affects later in life.
nasty. Aspirin thins the blood and causes internal bleeding, particularly in the stomach. if he's had no symptoms to date, that's very surprising. If you have to kill yourself, there are easier ways than that. I would advise him to have a check up.
What a silly answer from Jan s , but don't worry if there are no side effects now then he's ok but going to the doc for blood tests would be advisable.
it should clear your system in about 36 hours. aspirin overdose causes hepatotoxicity.. please go see doctor...
