Why is the liver limit on exceeding 2 capsules when it only has 250 mg of tylenol, (acetaminophen) but you can take two extra strength 500 mg tylenols (acetaminophen) up to 3 times?

What else is in...: ...the capsules please? Tylenol (acetaminophen) toxicity is dose-dependent, but can be exacerbated by co-administrations, alcohol indiscretion, underlying liver disease, genetic factors, more...
