Is it safe to take Dolo 650 (paracetamol) daily for 10+ days for chronic tension headaches, or does that raise liver concerns?

⚠For peer discussion only β€” not a substitute for clinical judgment. Always verify with authoritative sources.

Patient reports recurring tension-type headaches almost daily for the past 2 weeks, self-medicating with one Dolo 650 tablet most evenings for relief. No fever, no other analgesics/NSAIDs combined, no known liver disease, occasional alcohol use (1-2 drinks/week). Headaches seem to respond well to the tablet but patient is concerned about taking paracetamol this frequently and wants to know if this crosses into overuse territory, and whether liver function tests are warranted before continuing further.
