I seriously dont get this at all.  I do not understand why a parent wouldnt take their child to the ER who had ingested this much.  Also, if the amount that you listed is correct whoever took this must be rather seasoned to addiction.

Please check back and let us kno how its going!! And listen if this is happening to u , u dont have to b scared to get some help u wont get in trouble!!!!!! All anyone wants is to help! Please get some help or get ur friend some help. Even tho there arent any signs listed above they dont always show in those exact ways. Tylenol is veryyyy hard on the liver and tht much of it can cause it to shut down.

I can't say anything else.  Sure hope she's okay.  It would be a damn shame if she isn't, and some kind of serious medical crisis could have been avoided.I WILL tell you that if something IS wrong, you're quickly running out of time.

Maria raises a good ?.....is this really happening to YOU?  I can't understand how you would be in the middle of this situation with a "friend"..and that her parents would be allowing YOU to call the shots, or even still be present.  That doesn't add up.  Either you're talking about yourself and have told nobody (likely), or you never told your friend's parents.  Either way, VERY dangerous.

Sure hope you change your mind, and soon.

How would u feel if something happened and u have all these ppl telling u to do the right thing? Is it even a friend at all or is it u? U have a nurse telling u to het her xhecked and ur not listening. How many tine do u meed to b told to get her checked? ?? Until its too late?

Yes, and I'm TELLING you, as a person with knowledge, that she needs evaluated.  Like I said, she might be just fine, but what if she ISN'T??  You won't know until it's too late.

Does her Mom know ALL the facts and EXACTLY what she took?  Why did she take the OD?  To get high?  To hurt herself?  That needs addressed, too, btw, why she would be so careless with her life.

If she's a minor, an adult would have to consent for treatment, but you could still call an ambulance, explain the situation...and go from there.

I apologize in advance firstly for being blunt ya,
It totally the most dumb post that I am seeing right now, hello, it's 5500mg and did you copied the people messages? Min 24 hour to show up symptoms!!!  Hey, stop asking for answer which is being damn ridiculous, you seems so calm ya staying calm mentally is needed definitely, but physically come on, get worked!!!  Call 911 , no time for typing now,

It a life, she's not going to be able to.tell you how she's feeling as you have says she's look high!!!

Stop wandering around and asking ridiculous q, I mean it a life we are talking about, you shall come back after sending her, this is the right thing to do, then let us know how's she's doing after which,

Sorry once again

She overdosed, she needs evaluated medically, period.  You're not going to be able to tell by looking at her if her liver is failing (until it's too late) or her electrolytes are dangerously abnormal.

She very well may be totally fine, but it's just NOT smart toi take chances.  If her liver or kidney function is affected, the longer you wait, the worse it will be.

There's only ONE answer here, and the fact that her mother isn't insisting she be seen is a shame.

Call an ambulance.  By the time you're done "waiting", it may be too late.  NEVER mess around with OD situations.  NEVER.  She needs checked out regardless if you "think" she's okay.

I'll pray for your friend, and that's she's okay.

Dont let her sleep. She's probably going to throw up. Get off the computer and get her to a hospital right now!
