Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Speaking of acetaminophen, I was having some kind of fairly serious pain last year, and to relieve that pain, I took too many " Alleve " tablets during too short a time. I began having chest pain, which turned out to be esophageal spasms caused by the Alleve. But since my father, who was not overweight, had suffered a heart attack in his forties, I thought I should not take any chances, and I had my wife drive me to the emergency room. There they prodded, poked and tested me to the tune of about 625 dollars, which meant about 250 dollars out of my own pocket after insurance. I hope I don't do anything so stupid again. The instructions about how much and how often to take OTC medicines are printed on the bottle for good reason. Best wishes, Elliot --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
