Pharmacist tips for Acetaminophen (Tylenol)

pharmacist
  • Make sure to follow your provider's instructions or the directions on the medication box. There are many strengths and formulations of acetaminophen (Tylenol), each with their own instructions on how to take the medication. Ask your provider or pharmacist if you're not sure how to take the specific acetaminophen (Tylenol) product you have.

    • Take acetaminophen (Tylenol) with or without food. If it's hurting your stomach, try taking it with food to help.

      • For acetaminophen (Tylenol) non-chewable pills: Swallow the non-chewable pills whole. Breaking, crushing, or chewing these pills will damage their special coating and affect how acetaminophen (Tylenol) gets absorbed into your body. Check with your pharmacist for recommendations if you or your child has trouble swallowing the pills.

        • For acetaminophen (Tylenol) oral liquids or suspensions: Be sure to use a medication dose cup, spoon, or oral syringe to measure out your dose. Using household teaspoons might cause you to take the wrong amount of acetaminophen (Tylenol). Shake the suspension bottle well before each dose to mix the medication well. Store all liquid bottles of acetaminophen (Tylenol) at room temperature.

          • For acetaminophen (Tylenol) dissolvable powder packets: The powder in these packets doesn't need to be mixed with water. Pour the berry-flavored powder directly onto your tongue, and let the medication dissolve (should take seconds).

            • It's best to limit how much alcohol you drink while taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) to help prevent liver problems. Both alcohol and acetaminophen (Tylenol) can harm the liver.

              • Avoid using multiple medications containing acetaminophen to help lower your risk for liver problems. Acetaminophen is found in many over-the-counter and prescription medications. Ask your provider or pharmacist if you're not sure if the medications you take contain acetaminophen.

                • Tell your pharmacist or provider about all of your medications so they can make sure acetaminophen (Tylenol) is safe to take with your other medications. This is because acetaminophen (Tylenol) can interact with other medications. For example, taking warfarin (Coumadin) with acetaminophen (Tylenol) might put you at risk of bleeding.

                  • Stop using acetaminophen (Tylenol) and contact your provider if you experience any of the following: pain that gets worse or lasts more than 10 days (for adults) or 5 days (for children under 12 years); fever that gets worse or lasts more than 3 days; any new symptoms that appear; or any redness or swelling. These might be signs of a more serious medical condition.

                    • Store acetaminophen (Tylenol) up and away from children so they're less likely to reach and accidentally take the medication. If you think someone has accidentally taken too much acetaminophen (Tylenol), call a Poison Control Center right away at 1-800-222-1222.

                      faqs

                      Frequently asked questions about Acetaminophen (Tylenol)

                      How much acetaminophen (Tylenol) can I take?
                      In general, the maximum amount of acetaminophen you can take in a 24-hour period depends on your age. For people 12 years and older, the labeled maximum amount of acetaminophen is 4,000 mg per day. And for children younger than 12 years of age, the maximum amount of acetaminophen is 75 mg/kg of body weight (up to 4,000 mg) per day. Doses higher than these can cause liver damage. Keep in mind that certain acetaminophen (Tylenol) products have different maximum recommended doses on the manufacturer label, so it's important to check the packaging of the product you have. In addition, your provider might recommend a lower maximum daily dose than what's written on the label. For example, providers typically recommend people who are at high risk for liver damage (e.g., drink 3 or more alcoholic drinks per day, poor nutrition, history of liver problems) to take at most 2,000 mg of acetaminophen per day. If you're not sure how much acetaminophen you can safely take in a day, always ask a provider or pharmacist.
                      How long can I take acetaminophen (Tylenol)?
                      If you're 12 years or older, it's generally recommended that you use acetaminophen (Tylenol) for no more than 10 days. For children under 12 years old, it's recommended that they use the medication for no more than 5 days. Talk to a provider first before taking any more acetaminophen (Tylenol) if you or your child needs to use the medication for more than these specified number of days. If you're not sure how long you should take acetaminophen (Tylenol), always ask a provider or pharmacist.
                      Can I drink alcohol while taking acetaminophen (Tylenol)?
                      It depends on the amount of alcohol you drink. It's typically safe to have one or two drinks around the same time that you take an occasional, recommended dose of acetaminophen (Tylenol). The CDC defines drinking a moderate amount of alcohol as up to 1 drink per day for women and up to 2 drinks per day for men. But, if you drink more than this, you're at higher risk for liver problems since both acetaminophen (Tylenol) and alcohol can harm the liver. If you drink alcohol and aren't sure if acetaminophen (Tylenol) is safe for you to take, ask your provider first before using the medication.
                      Is acetaminophen (Tylenol) a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)?
                      No. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) isn't considered an NSAID. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) doesn't lower inflammation and swelling throughout the body like NSAIDs do. NSAIDs work by blocking proteins called cyclooxygenase (COX) throughout the body, which play a role in causing inflammation. On the other hand, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is thought to only block COX in the brain and nervous system. This might explain why acetaminophen (Tylenol) doesn't help with swelling throughout the body. This also might explain why acetaminophen (Tylenol) doesn't have some of the risks that NSAIDs have, like bleeding, heart risks, or kidney problems.
                      Can you take acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil) or another NSAID together?
                      It's generally considered safe to take both acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or another NSAID together. They work a little differently to relieve pain and fever. Some providers might recommend to take both medications if either one alone isn't working to relieve pain. Keep in mind that acetaminophen (Tylenol) and NSAIDs each have their own risks. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) has a risk for liver damage, and NSAIDs have other serious, and potentially life-threatening risks (e.g., heart risks, kidney problems). Before using other pain medications with acetaminophen (Tylenol), speak with your healthcare provider to make sure it's safe for you to do so.
                      Can I take acetaminophen (Tylenol) while pregnant?
                      If you're pregnant, speak to your provider about using acetaminophen (Tylenol). Recently, researchers have suggested concern over acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy and the risk for development problems in babies. But, both the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the FDA still consider acetaminophen (Tylenol) as a safe option to relieve pain and fever during pregnancy. The two organizations state that there isn't enough strong evidence to support the claims that acetaminophen (Tylenol) is harmful during pregnancy. As with any medication, it's always best to discuss with your provider about the risks and benefits of using acetaminophen (Tylenol) while pregnant.
                      Can I take acetaminophen (Tylenol) while breastfeeding?
                      If you're planning to breastfeed, speak with your provider about taking acetaminophen (Tylenol). In general, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is considered safe to take while breastfeeding. In fact, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends acetaminophen (Tylenol) as a good option for pain relief while nursing. A very small amount of acetaminophen (Tylenol) is found in breast milk, but the medication doesn't appear to cause side effects in breastfed babies. If you have any concerns about taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) while you're breastfeeding, talk to a provider or pharmacist.

                      What are the risks and warnings for Acetaminophen (Tylenol)?

                      Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can cause some serious health issues. This risk may be even higher for certain groups. If this worries you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist about other options.

                      risk-warning

                      Liver damage

                      • Risk factors: Drinking 3 or more alcoholic beverages a day | Taking other medications containing acetaminophen | Taking too much acetaminophen (Tylenol) | History of liver problems

                        Taking too much acetaminophen can cause severe and sometimes life-threatening liver damage. For adults, the maximum amount of acetaminophen is typically 4,000 mg per day, but it can be lower depending on your provider's instructions and your risk for liver damage. For children, ask your child's provider.

                        Speak to your provider before using acetaminophen (Tylenol) if you have liver problems since it can cause further damage to your liver. Limit or avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medication to prevent harm to the liver.

                        Signs of liver problems include dark urine, feeling tired, upset stomach or stomach pain, or yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes. If you notice any of these symptoms, call your provider right away.

                        risk-warning

                        Accidental overdose

                        • Risk factors: Taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) with other acetaminophen-containing medications

                          There are many over-the-counter and prescription medications that contain acetaminophen as one of the active ingredients. Avoid using multiple medications containing acetaminophen. Doing so can raise your risk for an accidental overdose, which can lead to serious and sometimes fatal liver damage. Make sure you're keeping track of how much acetaminophen you're taking throughout the day. If you or someone you know might've taken too much or overdosed on acetaminophen (Tylenol), get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) right away.

                          risk-warning

                          Allergic skin reactions

                          Although rare, acetaminophen (Tylenol) can cause serious skin reactions, such as rash, blisters, skin reddening, or skin peeling. If you notice changes in your skin, stop using acetaminophen (Tylenol) and get medical attention right away.
