A member asked:
Im 29 weeks pregnant and accidentally took a double dose of my usual two 500 mg tylenols (acetaminophen) within 4-5 hours. will my baby be okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This should not cause any harm. From what you are saying, though, is that you took 2000mg of tylenol (acetaminophen) in one dose. The maximum dose for a person is 4000mg in one 24 hour period. So, if it is possible that you are even close to this dose in 24 hours then you must call your doctor immediately.
