Conditions

  • Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
  • Stroke

IV acetaminophen

Patients in this group will receive IV acetaminophen and an oral placebo every 6 hours for a 14 day period. Blood and CSF samples will be collected from patients throughout the 14 day period.

DRUG

Oral acetaminophen

Patients in this group will receive oral acetaminophen and an IV saline solution placebo every 6 hours for a 14 day period. Blood and CSF samples will be collected from patients throughout the 14 day period.

DRUG

Oral placebo

Patients who receive IV acetaminophen will also receive an oral placebo with their IV treatments (every 6 hours for a 14 day period).
