Is Tylenol safe

Answer 1

Tylenol is particularly hard on your liver. The maximum daily dosage is 4 grams, which is still under debate at present (for being too high a dosage). As far as safety goes, you should be asking your doctor this question. One can read the directions on the box, and follow what they say, and the assumption is that you will be "safe" (no negative health effects), but if you take anything, any pill, any drug, even a vitamin, for months straight, there is going to be some kind of effect on your health, be it harmful or otherwise. Personally, I would not take Tylenol every day for a week, much less for months at a time.

Answer 2

If you have any stomach/digestion problems, or bleed/bruise easily you should check with a physican first before taking a daily aspirin. Also if you take a blood thinner an aspirin can make your blood too thin.

Answer

Many doctors now prescribe low-dose aspirin on a daily basis. It is prescribed as a preventative for heart problems or to prevent heart attacks and clogged arteries as it is a mild blood thinner. Many manufactuers now make aspirin for that purpose, usually one pill is around 81 or 82 mg. You should ask your doctor before starting this regimen. If you are on Coumadin ( paraffin ), a common blood thinner, you have to be extra careful and follow the advice of your healthcare professional. It is considered a safe and preventative course of action to take this amount of aspirin daily. If it bothers your stomach, look for ENTERIC COATED ASPIRIN that by-passes your stomach and dissolves in your intestine.

AnswerOne 100mg aspirin a day is correct and recommended by heart association.

Answer 3

Why are you taking the Tylenol tablet daily? Some doctors recommend taking an aspirin a day, but taking a Tylenol a day will eventually destroy your liver. Talk to your doctor about the medicines you're taking, because he/she can recommend what is best for you to take, if you should be taking anything at all.

Answer 5

Tylenol is in fact very dangerous for your liver. It has been known to cause severe liver damage to the point of needing a transplant. NEVER take more Tylenol then directed. The usual dosage is up to 1000 mg every 8 hours as needed for pain. No more than 4000 mg per day should be taken.

Answer 6

Tylenol is very rough on your liver. ibuprofen is not so good for your kidneys. You should ask your doctor about that. Too much of anything can be bad for you, and there is also the risk of you getting addicted. You can get addicted to anything you can think of. If you drank one glass of milk everyday for a month or so, you would find yourself addicted.

Relatively safe; but be aware that Tylenol has been associated with liver failure especially when taken for long periods of time.
