Now that I think about it, I don’t think acetaminophen has been effective in ever curing my headaches even back when I was prescribed liver damage amounts.
Sleep apparently > painkillers
I wouldn’t necessarily generalize; even if acetaminophen doesn’t work, other painkillers like aspirin or naproxen sodium might. (Personally, I take naproxen sodium and only naproxen sodium when I have a headache.)
For me, out of everything OTC, Advil Liquigels work the best for anything wrt aches & pain. Headache, muscle ache, period cramps, etc. And it’s pretty quick, too. The generic ones are fine.
1000mg is quite high for a single dose of paracetamol.

Of course, anecdotal evidence and such.
In the US, that’s the maximum single dose. What is it for your country?
600mg
Just checked my medicine cabinet and my Acetaminophen bottle is 500mg per tablet. Ad. I’ve definitely taken two before. I might take less now.
