Don't excede 6 doses in a 24 hour period of Tylenol?
This might be a dumb question but I am giving Tylenol to someone who is in a lot of pain and it says do not exceed 6 doses in a 24 hour period, BUT it says to take 2 pills every 6 hours.
Is a DOSE 1 pill or would it be the 2 pills that is recommended? Would 6 doses be 6 pills or 12 pills? |

2 = 1 dose = 8 per 24 hour period.
