Well, I just had a bad experience from my addiction and Tegretol.
I usually take meds with too much APAP, Paracetamol, I know the edge per day on adults it's supposed to be 4g, but sometimes I exceeded this and I felt nauseous but fine after some hours.
Today I began feeling incredibly nauseous, I knew immediately it was from the so much APAP I take, it's the only med that gives me this problem. However, I expected to be nothing important.
One hour, two hours passed, I tried making exercise, taking Sodium Bicarbonate, the usual things to make me feel better. It was no good. I couldn't swallow, I had to spit continuously. My liver was beginning to fail? how come? well, after googling, I discovered that Tegretol prevents the further absorption of Acetaminophen because of it's wonderful self induction.
I decided to go to the bathroom and auto induce vomit. It was very easy, after 5-10 seconds of keeping my hand well inside my mouth I began vomiting. I think I vomited half I had in my stomach, including the APAP, because I felt relief immediately.
After some hours I slowly began to drink some Coke with an Alka-Setzer. After another hours I took my Tramadol and my Klonopin as well. I still feel "pressure" or some nausea, but it's super mild. As for my stomach, I feel it like pretty empty.
I never vomit, but this time it was super easily auto inducing it, though it probably put a lot of stress in my abdomen and heart. I can swallow my own spit normally now. And can drink to some extent.
I won't take Tegretol again. The interaction with meds is incredible high, I never thought APAP would be affected by it too. I think tonight I just saved myself from liver failure.
