  • @mustwinder not hard to believe why don't you try it and if you make it let me know

  • My cousin Dawne dies at 47 years old, The autopsy showed more tylenol than the medical examiner had ever seen in a woman of her size, She was very tiny. I think Tylenol should be banned anyone who disagrees ought to lose a loved one then tell me how you feel about this shit drug.

  • Evelyn burns daughter died and it is terrible. Why didn't they try giving her a narcotic pain reliever to help her - then possible she wouldn't have had to take so much tylenol. Some Doctors are afraid to prescribe pain killers to women. They often prescribe/ treat pain more in men as they tend to believe it more. This is a sad story.

  • @Roop433 Yeah, that's twice the recommended dose in a 24 hour period. Tylenol becomes very dangerous at those levels.

  • She died from 8 Tylenol a day for a week? Sounds hard to believe, took 6-7, 4 to 5 times a week for years (Hydro+APAP) and never had a problem, some days I did take 8. However, they could easily just remove the APAP from the opioid and it would be nearly as effective.

  • dear fda if you ban percocet/vicodin im sure half the worlds population will not be happy there are millions of people that need these drugs to live a norm life do not take away their lives because some idiots do not know how to read

  • dear cbs this mono sound sucks your video editor is preety bad make it stereo or mono on both speakers

  • any more than 8,000 mgs of acetametaphine can be fatal

  • thats why theres oxycodone without the tylonal in it... roxys...dumbasses

  • well i should b gone i take up to well just say 12 of that a day and then at night take sleep meds. I take BC's to .and been doing this for 8 yrs
