I asked if it was okay to enjoy my beer while on tylenol (acetaminophen) and got a yes answer. however why is there so much online saying it's not. is there a limit?

How many of each?: Alcohol can make Acetaminophen more toxic. The recommended maximum daily dose, which used to be 4 grams/day is now 2 grams/day, and the fda is now requiring all tylenol-containing drugs to have no more than 325 mg per pill, so we are talking about no more than 6 tablets/day if you are taking it regularly. If you add alcohol to the mix, that number goes down. How many beers -1-2 prob ok, more isn't.
