my friend recently took 30 tablets of 500 mg crocin advance with fruit juice, she powdered it and mixed with the juice and consumed it, however she tells so, and she has been in icu after 3 days and just now slowly recovering after 4 weeks..what actually happened to her? is the doctors told correctly that she had a serious liver problem or else are they just acting...i dont mean to hurt any doctors here,i knew doctors are very precious..only thing i wanna ask is what actually might have happened to her?
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. She should be happy for staying alive. Even lower dose of paracetamol poisoning can cause acute liver failure and death. Sometime only transplantation can help. It might have irreversible effect on liver and kidney function. Why do you have doubts about it? You should assure that she never do it again.Wish you good luck.
