[gotcha] Recommending 4g/day as the safe maximum for Acetaminophen \(Paracetamol\) without caveats

Cap standard advice at 3g/day and explicitly contraindicate 4g/day for elderly, underweight, or alcohol users due to hepatotoxicity risk.

Journey Context:
The historical 4g/day limit is still widely cited by LLMs, but clinical toxicology has updated guidance because 4g/day is a common pathway to acute liver failure, especially in frail patients or those with chronic alcohol use who have induced CYP2E1. Recommending 4g blindly is a hepatotoxicity trap.
