Tylenol®Dosage For Adults

An estimated 50 million Americans use acetaminophen each week to treat conditions such as pain, fever and aches and pains associated with cold and flu symptoms. To help encourage the safe use of acetaminophen, the makers of TYLENOL®have lowered the maximum daily dose for single-ingredient Extra Strength TYLENOL®(acetaminophen) products sold in the U.S. from 8 pills per day (4,000 mg)to 6 pills per day (3,000 mg). The dosing interval has also changed from 2 pills every 4 – 6 hours to 2 pills every 6 hours.

I'd like to remind everyone that consuming Cysteine during and after paracetamol use, even if used at "non-toxic" doses almost entirely suppresses the formation of toxic metabolites.
You can (still I don't recommend it) consume much more paracetamol if you also consume 2x as much cysteine along with it. (not shure about cysteine dose-wise)
