Question: 3 alieves and 1 tylonol = 1310 mg!?
is that to much!? is that dangerouss!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yes and Yes!. Aleve is an over the counter medication called Naproxen Sodium!. Tylenol is acetaminophen!.
The most a person's liver can tolerate of Tylenol at one time is 1300 mg!. Tylenol Arthritis has 650mg per pill and just two of those puts you at the limit of Tylenol a person should have at one time!. Extra strength Tylenol is 500mg, so 3 is too much!. More than that will stress and damage the liver!. And remember, you only have one and you need it to live!.
Aleve, on the other hand is 220mg!. That is 200 mg of naproxen and 20 mg of sodium!. It says on the bottle that you can take 1 tablet every 8-12 hours, although the first dose can be 2 tablets, but not to exceed 3 in a 24 hour period!. Again, this affects your liver!.
People that take too much tylenol or aleve usually die because there is no counteracting drug for this medication, like there is for most other drugs!.

If you were to take 3 Aleves, that is already the maximum daily limit of what is allowable!. Adding a tylenol is just stressing your liver more because the Aleve already has the liver taxed because it isn't able to filter that much aleve at one time!.
Always follow the directions on the bottle!. And if you are still curious, ask your doctor or pharmacist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Aleve is Naproxen, while Tylenol is Acetaminophen!.

The Maximum daily dose for Tylenol is 4 grams (4000 mg)!. In the hospital we tell the nurses not to give more than 4 gms in a 24 hr period!.

I am pretty sure taking three aleve tabs as prescribed is not a risk!.

Hopefully, you did not take all the pills at the same time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Is this just today!? I am not sure!. Look up and all night pharmacy and ask the druggist!. Or call the emergency room and ask them!. Are you feeling effects from them!? If so go to the ER!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
