Pain Answer: Tylenol is a pain reliever and a fever reducer.
• Tylenol is used to treat many conditions such as headache, muscle aches, arthritis, backache, toothaches, colds, and fevers.
• Tylenol may also be used for a variety purposes, but check with your physician before use.

• Use Tylenol for up to 3 days for fever or up to 10 days for pain (or up to 5 days to treat a child's pain). If the symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse, stop using Tylenol and see a doctor.

• Avoid alcohol during treatment with Tylenol. Together, alcohol and Tylenol can be damaging to the liver.

• Be aware of the acetaminophen content of other over-the-counter and prescription products. Care should be taken to avoid taking more than the recommended amount of acetaminophen per dose or per day.
