I was told no more than 4 extra strength. I was also told to take regular strength so that I could take more through out the day. Reg is 350 mg, extra strength is 500. I hope this helps!

9 days ago i had a tooth pulled and things kinda went bad. A chunk of bone broke loose from my jaw and is sticking out the inside of my gum. I saw the oral surgeon friday and he said since the other end of the chunk is still alive and attached to the jaw, he cant remove it until it either breaks loose on its own or dies due to lack of circulation, and rescheduled to see me in ten days. He told me to take as few tylenol as possible to control the pain. Problem is, it hurts like hell and tylenol does help it alot. I called my GI to find out how many tylenol i can safely take in a day but he's on vacation for the next week so no answer there. Does anyone have any idea how many tylenol can be taken a day for a very limited time? I'm in week 30something of 48 incivek triple TX and been UND since week 4, if that helps any.

 no more than 4 regular trength tylenol.

Everything I read about using Tylenol with HepC said no more than 2000 mg per 24 hours. Some pills are 300 mg some 500 mg so be careful.
