Acetaminophen is one of the most widely used antipyretic/analgesic medications in the world, but the OTC designation conveys a message of safety to the public that may not be fully deserved. For example, healthy women taking over 7.5 g/day are more likely to suffer an adverse cardiovascular event, even though this is below the generally assumed toxic level of 10 g/day. Therapeutic doses can also increase blood pressure and heart rate, which may explain the increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events. When these study results are considered in light of the fact that 84% of all infants in the United Kingdom receive APAP during the first 6 months of life it is hard not to be concerned about lifelong cardiopulmonary health. Cardiopulmonary and/or renal insufficiency, in the absence of liver disease or history of malnutrition or alcohol abuse, may be sufficient to predispose individuals to developing toxic levels of APAP within the therapeutic range. Overall, APAP is safe to use by healthy adults and children but the dangers this drug poses to the rest of the population are significant. Much more research needs to be done to determine the safe dosage limits for everyone.
