Pretty useful doctor. I've been worrying whether I'm taking the right dose or not, but now I'm not stressed anymore.🌸
Nice work Dr! Very informative ! Thanks Dr!
pov you tried to od on tylenol and alcohol but didn't tell your mom so she doesn't know why you've been throwing up all day and now you're scared you need a liver transplant
@STUNTMANOG gaming please take care of yourself. There are blessings for you just around the corner. Stay alive to enjoy them.
Been there brobro on that shi again ayyyeeeee✌🏼
nah im just tryna get high off some pills
@doggothehedgehogif i already did it once you think this time I'll need a liver transplant?
@doggothehedgehog thanks for the help...
Thankyou so much for reply 👃
Great video. @3:55 Dr. Richardson asks the very important question: "Who needs to take care when taking acetaminophen? Then he lists people with risk factors: People with a compromised liver: chronic liver disease such as hepatitis C, cirrhosis of the liver, people who drink a lot of alcohol. But I think there are other people who have liver issues. For example, patients who take methotrexate (a drug often used to treat rheumatoid arthritis) tend to have elevated liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT, etc.) Would these people also need to follow the same cautions with acetaminophen? Of course this CZcams video is not medical advice, just information. Do doctors who have blood test results look at things like AST, ALT (i.e. liver enzymes) or other values when recommending whether patients should take the drug or not?
In addition, sometimes patients are deciding between acetaminohen and other drugs such as NSAIDS to manage chronic pain. Different drugs, due to different mechanisms of action and different ways they are metabolized are likely to have risks of different side effects. NSAIDS are often noted for being linked to higher risk of gastric ulcers, higher blood pressure, reduced kidney function, etc. Choosing the right drugs is hard!
Today, April 8, 2024, my orthopedic doc said that I should take 2 arthritis strength Tylenol every morning and again in the evening. These are 650 mg each. So, I am under that daily amount this doc recommends. My doc said that 4 a day will help keep the arth pain under control and help me stay more active because the pain will be controlled. For the time being, I will do this but I will be researching other, more natural ways to keep the pain at a low level. I can tell it's helping the cervical stenosis pain and the accompanied headache that I live with 24/7. That alone is awesome!❤ I also have arthritis in my hands and they feel better this evening, too.
I weight 300lbs and currently cant take NSAIDS for a Lithotripsy procedure. I find that I need to take 1500mg at a time to get relief but hit the daily max dose after a partial 3rd dose (1000mg) I could in theory take 6000mg a day for pain management but im afraid to.
I was sure that I could take 2 a day but I don't take pills so I just wanna hear him say it eventhough I took one yesterday and didn't take anything else
I guess I'm good since I take only 1000 mg/day of Tylenol. My only worry is I had jaundice when I was younger and have scarring on my liver.
One thing moe I am taking once aday @ every night it's ok?
Hello DR Derek I hope everything is going well with you I have a question I take this kind of Tylenol two Friday and two Monday is it too much?
I hear tylenol is best taken off of weight to determine dosage. Is 100mg above a 400mg recommendation life threatening?
Can Tylenol be taken with NAC???
I've took a 1000 mg of ibphrofin everyday for 3 yrs pluse a bc a day also. Is my liver ok?
Thank you
I have a question. Can you get liver damage from being on oxycodone for a year 3 times a day. That’s roughly 1050 mg a day
Lol yes fuckkeddddddd
Are you sayin git is 1050 mg of oxycodone a day? Or is it oxycodone combined with acetaminophen?
@@DrAndreaFurlan I would love to know also oxycodone with Tylenol, been taking two a day ?
Do u constipate from oxy ?
Dunno if anyone's gonna read this, but I took 2400 mg in one sitting, then took another 2400 mg 12 hours later. It's been 30 hours since the first pill. Felt mildly nauseous, but no vomiting. And very little RUQ pains. Really hoping it's not enough for an overdose, I made a mistake attempting. (Oh yeah, I'm 17 and weigh 37 kg if that's an important factor)
@Valerie hi, yeah, I'm surprisingly still alive and my mom is signing me up for a therapy circle
Same happend to me, i wanted to trip on acetaminophen/cod (300mg of Aceta & 30 mg of codeine) and i took 8 pills literally becouse i only focused on the 30 mg of codeine ( 8 pills have a total of 2,400 mg of acetaminophen and 240mg of codeine ), and now i'm scared asf cus i don't want to overdose nether i want to tell My mom so she can take me to the hospital, i'm supposed to be a pillar in my house not a drug addict (im not a drug addict but thats what's she going to think when she relises i took 8 mfkn pills)
@@anthonyvega1668 u good now bro
@@noah-po3vxbro never answered 💀
I'm 13 and took 2 of them, am I gonna be okay?
I think one is stuck in my esophagus. Will it be a danger to me?
Fuck yeah lol
I took a small bottle full cause of depression and I was sick and vomiting all day I slept it off and was fine it was stupid sure but the only thing I had was a small amount of pain after but it didn't effect me much 🙃
Pls don't do it again, bless you
@@soniaramirez6527 im working on myself and focusing my pain in my music versus my body.
I pray 🙏 you're in a better place now 🙂. May God bless you

Just drink lots of water bro. What was the milligrams

You good bro

Did you survive?
If i take 10,000 mg that will kill me or what will happen? Im 14 and 48 kg
One day time & one @ night time everyday is ok?
How much can kill?
@@fandomonly75 what is answer I can’t got properly
I take 100 650mg tylenol and 100 motrin 200mg every 2 1/2 weeks because of back pain . Due to Covid I'm need a Dr. For my pain what can I take . because I know I'm surely killing my liver. Without the pills I can't work my Certified Nursing Assistant Job. Please help what can I take. I am in Staten island Ny
in my country if you sleep on hard surface like carpet without any mattress for few days your back will be better. can you please try for me few days and let me know. take care
Please see a chiropractor
Oh!!! There are so many exercises that are excellent for back pain, why do you need to take so many medications?
@@DrAndreaFurlan Hi Dr Furlan I have tried so many. I work 16 hrs a day 4 days a week. I sit at a desk for 8 hrs. On 1 job and the 2nd job I am a CNA. I went to pain Dr. They wanted to burn the nerve in my back. But due to me living alone I have no one to go with me to put under anesthesia. So I gave up. I don't know what else I can do. So I'm now working on my weight maybe that will help me. Thank you guys for responding
How is you liver??? Do u take norco are percocet... so how much tylenol a day do u average ? And for how long did u take that amount ? I'm kinda in the same boat with tylenol
I took 1000mg and I feel a bit off, but my family said it’s not worth going to emergency for and that it will wear off in some hours
How are you man?
@@antnope3042 hey I turned out fine with it, since it was a dose I could sleep off. It went away in two days just felt very drowsy
That’s literally the recommended dose of extra strength Tylenol… On the bottle it says take one or two 500mg pills.
I haven’t slept in two days so my muscle hurts can I take one pill of pm Tylenol?
Sleep is an important aspect to prevent pain.
I've taken Tylenol,I have wpndered why it does nothing
There are some types of pain that do not respond well to acetaminophen.
So if I take 2 every day an I gonna die ?
I take 500mg a day with 8g codeine for fibroid pain. Been taking it months now. I never ever go above 1000mg.
There is research that indicates that pregnant women should not take Tylenol. ADHD develops in the child because of it.There are major ongoing lawsuits.
Can take one teblet 500 mg every day?
I think every 4 to 6 hrs as needed but not every day long term
I once took 30 500mg Tylenols. I stayed in bed all day, but didn't notice any pain or obvious problem. Five years later, is there something I should do about that?
I took 10 500mg throughout yesterday for a toothache and im scared 😂 but you took 30!?!?
Take brazile nuts and glutamine if u took too much Tylenol. It helped me.
Disclaimer: I am not a healthcare professional, this is just for entertainment purposes only.
i’m 16 and short and skinny. i took 5 pills. is that okey or do i need to take more to feel it
You took 5 Tylenols?
The maximum dose of acetaminophen is 3,000 per day. Under this dose it is safe to the liver.
@@DrAndreaFurlan I took two pm Tylenol pills, will I be ok? I’m experiencing a bit off and heart beating fast but nothing else
@@Connorscarlos your fine lol, i took 17
@@acoolghost8538 what ended up happening? That’s an overdose if you did it in less than a day lol
That's great Doc BUT Tylenol or Acetaminophen just does nothing for my pain. USELESS!
Same. That, ibuprofen, aleve, all are useless.
Ripped up my gut and intestines
Go to 1:39 to save you time👍🏽
Thank you!
can tylonal increase risk of serotonin syndrome?
Wtf lol
So if I take 4 a night I'm ok? I can't sleep for shit. My dr told me to take benadryl but I have afib and high pressure in my eyes. I just want something safe to put me to sleep
Ur fucked bud smoke some bud or take melatonin dont kill ur organs for 4 pills a night Godamn
@@dominic8171 I tried smoking and gummies, every sleep remedy there is. Used to do 12 Tylenol pm a night. I definitely need to find something
@@okieking8503 try trazodone if u haven't already it works good for insomnia u feel a bit groggy in the mornings but u get to sleep good

My wife give the the children-.the children cold and flu-this every night. we get into big arguments about this to the point where I want to leave her…. She said the doctor said it’s ok ….. my children ages are 9 amd 7s…. I believe this could be damaging to their organs.I’m so upset with our family doctor as well as my wife not thinking about their health
I hope you can get through to her. Allopathic doctors will tell you lots of harmful things are just fine. It's disgusting.
what would happen if you took 50,000mg?
Several weeks in ICU, liver failure, either liver transplant or dead. No more than 4000mg in a day.
@@ErikRichardsonDO It won't just kill you right away?
The Doctor speak fast and his speech can not be heard clearly.
@@ErikRichardsonDO what happens if a 14 year old takes 11? Cause I just did and I hope death wont come

@@BlisteryDuke29 4,000 mg is the recommended daily dose.
@@BlisteryDuke29 are u alive
Is it possible to take 4000mg at once without damage?
Yes?
As long as you aren’t drinking
That is very close to the maximum dose, and liver damage can be imminent.
@@DrAndreaFurlan thanks
