Dr. Pouya Shafipour answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

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.
