Hello Doctor,
I am a 22-year-old female, weighing 90 lbs. I took a dose of Tylenol Extra Strength about five hours ago, and just took another dose an hour earlier than I should have. Will I be okay?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
You should be fine, but it's important to be cautious. The maximum recommended daily dose for Tylenol (acetaminophen) is 4000 mg. If you've exceeded this amount, it's important to monitor for any signs of liver damage, such as yellowing of the skin or eyes, nausea, or unusual fatigue. If you're concerned or experience any of these symptoms, I recommend seeking medical attention immediately. If you haven’t exceeded the daily limit, you'll be okay, but it's always best to follow the recommended dosing schedule to avoid any risks.
Thanks
