I'm not suicidal, and i'm not a piece of emo trash. My mouth hurts because of my braces, and my friend and I were just wondering what would happen. If you really want to talk about trash, go look at the question you posted.

Taking 4 Tylenol

When doctors give out perscriptions for a more intense helping of pain relief with tylenol they add codeine. Too many tylenol will do damage to your liver. Tylenol is always taxing your liver, and the recommended dosage is what the FDA considers safe in exchange for its benefits. The best thing about tylenol is that it is safer for most people than any othr over the counter pain reliever. Things like aspirin and ibuprofen can cause rhye syndrome, espeically in small children and are not safe for pregnant or nursing mothers or children under the age of one. However, if you are an adult you are much better off with something like ibuprofen if you are looking to take an increased dose for greater pain relief, although I would consult your physician before doing even this. It is my understanding that prescriptions of ibuprofen are just increased doses of the same. The makers of tylenol have recently said that they would rather that you not take their product at all if you are going to misuse it. Bottom line, you are doing damage to your liver if you exceed the recommended dosage. If you exceed it by too much you may even die. Dumb idea to try it to find out.

4 tylenol every now and then won't kill you. The rule is don't take more than 8 tylenol per day. If you drink alcohol that day, don't take any.
If your pain is bad enough where you need more than 8 tylenol per day, go get stronger drugs.

WHY would you want to take that many Tylenol? It's not a smart thing to do.
If you have pain, see a doctor. If you're trying to commit suicide, contact your local suicide prevention hotline.

Call poisen control, they will be specific. But it hangs in your liver and you die an agonizing death. I believe only2 can be taken every 4hours, for a total of 6 daily, its a common problem for older people to get this toxcity and die. Please get to er if there is a medical pain issue.
