    OK, but I’m more concerned about the liver function issues. Tylenol is OK if you’re to the point where you can’t take it anymore.

    Seriously, those medications sometimes are worse than the problem.

      If Tylenol hit the market today, it would be prescription only. My best friend’s wife crashed her liver on it, was in a coma for 2-months until she got a new one.

        I got it for back pain. Then I realized that the pain was way stronger after I had the Tylenol. So I stopped. Later on I learned about the dangers. Tylenol is not something to take daily. Its a couple times when you’re dying of pain type of med. The worst part is that they put Tylenol on flu medication so you get a heavy dose every year no matter what.
