The investigation found the results are consistent with acetaminophen/paracetamol intoxication.According to product labeling for the assay: acetaminophen intoxications are frequently treated with n-acetylcysteine.N-acetylcysteine at a plasma concentration above 333 mg/l and the acetaminophen metabolite n-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (napqi) independently may cause falsely low results.
