Is This Dosage Of Tylenon Advisable To Treat Muscle Strain In The Left Upper Arm?
Iv e pulled muscle/ligament in upper left arm. Dr. Prescribed two 500mg Tylenol morning & two at night for two weeks. Because if my age (83), am concerned it might affect my liver. My bloodwork in August was all within range, though my hemoglobin is close to borderline. YYYY@YYYY

Don't worry it can be taken upto 1 gram 6th hourly. But if you are not having too much pain you can use one tablet in the morning and two at night
