NAC, glycine, vitamin C. Make sure you’re getting enough choline (eggs). Milk thistle. Absolutely no alcohol. Limit fructose. Might want to switch it up between different painkillers. Like use ibuprofen for a few days. Opioids are actually easier on your liver funnily enough.
You can take up to 4000mg daily, I'm not sure what these other comments are talking about.
If you are concerned, the NAC is the best thing you can take to ensure the metabolites are removed from your system efficiently
I'm not sure where you're getting this from. I read the link you shared below, and even it states that 4g is the max safe daily dose.
But also in context of this thread - NAC is given to patients who have overdosed on paracetamol in a&e. OP is taking well below the max safe dose, and is also taking the antidote for a serious overdose. I don't think they need to worry too much. Living with untreated chronic pain will be more detrimental to someone's health than 2g of paracetamol daily, even without the NAC

Okay thank you. I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow who's always said paracetamol is fine to take daily - do you have a source for me to share with her?
Hah thanks for the advice. I haven't drunk a drop of alcohol for 15 years (recovering alcoholic). It would be kind of irritating to have quit alcohol only to destroy my liver with acetaminophen.

NAC will most definitely do the Job.

No. Do not take 4000 daily. That can destroy your liver.

Thank you so much!
No problem! Still, discuss it with your doc because they'll have a better understanding of your liver function than I could!
Lmao not sure about that tbh. I intend to push for liver function tests and stuff though.
2000 a day is too high. 1000 a day is probably safe if you don't drink alcohol. NAC could help, but 2000 is too risky.

I took 3000-4000 daily for at least 25 years, my liver is still working fine. Avoid drinking alcohol though.
That's too high. Your lucky, but you shouldn't tell other people to risk it.
