In the article it is mentioned but it is worth stressing that N-acetylcysteine is a trivially available antidote for paracetamol overdose (and you may have it at home without knowing, Fluimucil, Mucomyst, NAC or alike).

Also: in Europe everybody normally takes paracetamol and not FANS as a first reach to minimize adverse effects. So this article looks like very US centric. AFAIK liver failure because of paracetamol in Europe is very rare. So here there could be cultural issues at play (medical culture of what is prescribed, and the fact that Europeans in general take lower dosages of everything).

EDIT: trick, if you very rarely take paracetamol and other pain medications, the next time try to take just 250mg. It works for most people, no need to take 750 or even 1 gram of paracetamol. 500 works for almost everybody, 250 for many folks.
