Age Dependant: If you are a healthy adult, over 12 with no history of liver disease or other diseases, then the dose for extra strength (500mg) Acetaminophen (tylenol) is 1000 gram (2x500mg) every 6 hours, no more than 4000mg in 24 hour period due to the liver toxicity potential.

Yes: Tylenol (acetaminophen) sinus contain Acetaminophen and a decongestant phenylephrine. There should not be issues with adding Claritin (an antihistamine) but avoid Claritin d which already contains a decongestant.
