Not sure if anyone else does that, but just passing the info along that if it's not long term and you haven't been told by a doctor or pharmacist otherwise 1000mg is ok (and works way better if you have a headache).

He said Mucinex is good stuff too. Didn't try that, but I know you said you got some of that Blueberry the other day. Hopefully it does something.
Thanks so much. I have been taking 2 of the capsules since that's what it says in the directions (I have generic acetaminophen rather than brand name Tylenol) though not to exceed 6 in 24 hr. Yesterday I took 4. Today so far just one dose of 2. I wish I could take NSAIDs as I think that they work better (especially for the sinus headache stuff) and last longer, but I can't after having ulcer surgery.
