Paracetamol, a popular pain reliever around the world, can be dangerous if misused.
According to Express, the UK experts warn that a small overdose of the drug can cause unpleasant side effects. The most common symptoms of an overdose are nausea and vomiting.
These symptoms occur within a few hours after taking a hepatotoxic dose of the drug, which, in turn, can provoke liver damage.
Also, an overdose of paracetamol can lead to drowsiness, jaundice, and pain in the right upper abdomen.
