Taking 9 tablets of Crocin (Paracetamol) at once can lead to an overdose of the medication. The side effects of an overdose of Crocin may include liver damage, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and in severe cases, it can lead to liver failure. It is important to seek medical help immediately if an overdose is suspected. The usual recommended dosage of Crocin is 1-2 tablets (500mg each) every 4-6 hours, with a maximum of 8 tablets in 24 hours for adults.
