Something on the order of 40% of UK suicides one year was via acetaminophen.

I heard a while back that they were able to greatly lower that number by simply putting it in blister packs instead of bottles.

Same for Sudafed--blister packs intended to make it more difficult for the meth makers. That didn't work, so they put Sudafed behind the counter, with sign-your-life-away identification procedures and daily/monthly quantity limits.
