Q: I just sent a question about my headache and many wrote me to take Tylenol but how often can I take it? Another question is Tylenol and Paracetamol or Alvidon the same? I live in Europe so I have no idea! thank you
A: You can have however many it says on the bottle, depends on the strength you buy. Tylenol is just a brand name for acetaminophen, so even no name brand acetaminophen should be fine. Paracetemol is another name for acetaminaphin, and the brand Alvedon is acetaminophen/paracetemol. Acetaminophen is one of the few drugs that it is just as safe to take while pregnant, as it is when you are not pregnant.
