A member asked:
Can taking a large amount of tylenol (acetaminophen) over 5 days have an effect on a fetus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tylenol (acetaminophen): No one should take more than 3 gms of tylenol (acetaminophen) daily. It can affect your liver. While tylenol (acetaminophen) may affect your liver, it does not cause birth defects or adverse effects in the fetus.
