Is it safe to take Tylenol? If so how many Mg?

[number2onitsway]

I've had a headache off and on since Monday. I bought Tylenol each pill is 500mg do I take one or two pills please help!

I suffer from broken and most of the time infected wisdom teeth. I took 2 extra strength Tylenol every six hours. It got so bad I was exceeding the daily dosage and my Dr prescribed something else for me. I was lucky and had no bad results for me or baby.

Every six hours is fine if you are still in pain contact your Dr and don't take more then they tell you because it can cause you liver damage.

You can take 2 500mg tylenols :)

Two every six hours is the maximum dose (4000 mg), but I usually advise my pregnant patients (I'm a pharmacist) to take as little medication as possible.  I would only take one every 4 to 6 hours if absolutely necessary, and try nondrug methods like a cool washcloth on your forehead.

I was told two extra strength tylonal every 6 hours as needed was okay.

I was told 2 500 mlg.  But I have had migraines for a week and they are horrible so My Dr prescribed me something else

The 500 you just take 1 pill.  500 MG is extra strength.  The normal Tylenol 325 mg you can take 2.
