What is the time gap I should maintain before taking another Tylenol pill?
All Tylenol products are dosed every 4-6 hours. It is important that you recognize the strength of the particular acetaminophen (Tylenol) tablet that you are taking, as they do come in different strengths. You should try NOT to exceed a maximum daily dose of 3250 mg, as higher doses can be harmful to your liver. While there is a maximum daily dose, the dosing interval remains every 4-6 hours. READ MORE
