A member asked:
I get a lot of headaches from chronic sinusitis. can't take ibuprofen so take tylenol 1000-2000mg per day everyday. will this harm my liver over time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: It is now generally recommended that 2000 mg per day is maximal dose to try to decrease likelihood of liver toxicity. Many people do fine with dosage you are taking. You just would want your liver functions tested by a simple blood test regularly.

I keep getting head aches that start around either eye, usually my left but now starting at my right. The pain is usually one sided and very strong. Today I have taken Tylenol and ibuprofen in rotation as well as napping to try to kick the head ache and nothing. I am unsure why I get these and they seem to be getting more frequent. Head aches?
