abstract="A case of acetaminophen poisoning following the ingestion of 26 g of acetaminophen by incremental dosing over a 25-h period is reported. At presentation, seven h after the last ingestion, the patient experienced hematemesis, the acetaminophen level was 150 micrograms/mL, and the SGOT was normal. The patient recovered uneventfully following N-acetylcysteine therapy. A review of the pharmacology and toxicity of acetaminophen is discussed. The case illustrates the problems of judging hepatotoxic potential in a multiple-dose acetaminophen ingestion and describes the successful use of N-acetylcysteine in a patient with a &quot;subacute&quot; acetaminophen overdose.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
