Brief Answer:
50 capsules can definitely cause harm to the liver

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.

Let me assure you that Relafen 2000mg a day can be tolerated by the body and is unlikely to cause liver damage.

However, intake of Tylenol more than 4gm in a day can cause liver damage. If you are talking about 50 capsules, it definitely is worth causing a lot of harm and you should contact medical services without delay.

Regards
