Well for me ans of 44 is b... Coz liver prob settle on its own w time..we just have to treat w charcol n NAC as indicated..I have looked in Uptodate and other sources which didnt mention anything about transplantaion in acetaminophen liver failure.
Relating ans c... It is also correct regarding ethics coz It increases risk of suicide but this wud be true if liver transplantaion is included in the management of toxicity..

So for me the best possible ans is B..
Will appreciate if anybody has better explanation
