Can Four Tylenol PM Tablets, Two At Once, Be Taken Within 10 Hours?

Hi I ve had a fever since yesterday. I went to the ER this morning and was diagnosed with the flu. At around 2pm I took two Tylenol PM and slept for about 8 hours. When I woke at 10, I checked my temp and it was normal. It s now midnight and it s creeping back up to 100.4-ish. Can I take another 2 Tylenol pm or is that too much?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Yes, it can be taken after this period and there is no need to be concerned since it can be taken each 6 hours and 3-4 pills daily is usual dosage. It is important not to have alcohol during this period and other medications that may interact wit this. Also, fever should be treated with cold showers, vitamin C and plenty of fluids intake.
Wish you good health. Kindly regards
