Abstract
Novel proteomic markers are better than existing standard tests (alanine transaminase and international normalized ratio) early in the course of paracetamol poisoning. Together with these new biomarkers of hepatotoxicity, a 12-hour acetylcysteine protocol offers clinicians and patients the possibility for better targeting of therapy, fewer adverse effects, a simpler dosing regimen, and shorter hospital stay.
