Acetaminophen and 1 beer?
I sometimes have trouble falling asleep at night. So i take a generic sleep aid with Acetaminophen. I normally don't drink at all. But today about 2 hours ago i drank 1 beer. 2 Hours whent by and i took 1.5g of the medicine.

Then i read the label and did some research and found that Alcohol consumbed before taking the medicine can cause liver damage or liver failure.

Anyone at all know if this is going to adversly affect me? Sorry, just trying to be on the safe side .

Well, 1 incident of drinking while taking acetaminophen would be fine. But now that you know that there may be adverse effects if you do so, then please don't drink alcohol & take that drug at the same time.

Just for a bit more info, alcohol can damage your liver, even more so when it is consumed with medications... The damage does not occur immediately but often builds up depending on the frequency of use, until you find out several years after that there is already something wrong with your liver.
