Question 1

Which is stronger: vicodin or tylenol #4?

Accepted Answer

Not clear what u mean by stronger. Go to uptodate.com and drugs.com.  It will depend on what u are trying to treat. Just pain or pain + inflammation. And other meds you are taking and your own metabolism will affect how each is absorbed and metabolized and helps.  Try each and see. T is a good anti-inflammatory.

Question 2

I took 2500 mg of tylenol (acetaminophen) at once about three or four hours ago; should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

You have taken a whole day's worth of tylenol (acetaminophen) at once. Usually, the recommendation is 3000-4000mg per day in divided doses. It would be better to take 1000mg at breakfast, lunch, and dinner to spread it out. Instead, what you've done is deliver one whopping dose of tylenol (acetaminophen) to metabolize all at once. It's like pollution - you don't want to overwhelm the system!

Question 3

Took 10mg statex  four times a day for 1 1/2 days. how long before i can switch back to tylenol (acetaminophen) 500mg?

Accepted Answer

Statex is an opioid and you should not take it unless you are suffering from severe pain.  Switch to Tylenol (acetaminophen) ASAP

Question 4

Is tylenol (acetaminophen) 4 as strong as vicodin?

Accepted Answer

The issue.  Analgesics should be taken at the lowest dose possible that is effective.  Equi-potency charts exist but they are subjective at best.

Question 5

Which is stronger tylenol (acetaminophen) 4 or percocet?

Accepted Answer

It actually depends what type of pain you have - both percocet and Tylenol 4 are combinations of acetaminophen and opioid analgesics.  Different patients tolerate different combinations in different ways - generally percocet is regarded as a "stronger" medication.

Question 6

Which is stronger, tylenol (acetaminophen) 4 or 512 percocet??

Accepted Answer

Percocet is stronger than tylenol (acetaminophen) 4

Question 7

I have an elevated alt it's 61... is that to high to take 650mg of tylenol (acetaminophen) every four hours?

Accepted Answer

Tylenol (acetaminophen) is only a liver poison at very high doses. You do need to find out why your ALT is elevated. It may be nothing more than your body asking for more exercise, but more serious illness needs to be ruled out

Question 8

I accidently took 3 500mg of extra strength tylenol in one dose? been on tylenol for the past four days cause of severe flu. should i go to the er?

Accepted Answer

While 3 tabs by themselves is not toxic, repetition can cause it to build up.  Stay well hydrated and hold off on the next dose  for at least 8 hours.
