Dengue is a viral disease that, especially in South America, has become a considerable public health problem. Depending on the severity, liver damage at various levels of impairment can be among the different effects of that disease. Fever, headache, and body pain in people with dengue are symptoms for which health agencies recommend analgesic medications. Acetaminophen is a drug that, depending on the dosage, can affect the human liver organ. Considering this, the objective of this study is to present a relationship between acetaminophen, dengue and liver problems that can be triggered by the medication. It appears that a large part of the studies still don´t consider alternatives for the use of existing drugs. These are studies that still reinforce that acetaminophen, even in the face of possible damage, is a considerable option for relieving dengue symptoms. From the study, it was possible to understand the risks of using other drugs for dengue symptoms, as well as the effective action of the population and the government in preventing the disease, through campaigns and public policies.
