Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
You have to weigh the benefit of taking it for pain relief against the possible future problems. If you take it to improve your mobility, and if you are advanced in years, I would opt for mobility. My Mom's 95 and took very few medications up until her very later years. I told her not to worry about her liver at this point if the pain relief allows her to move about and have a "normal" life.
I’m not giving medical or medication advice at all. My dad took two of the “arthritis Tylenol” which are the 650mg capsules every night for years on his doctor’s advice to cope with osteoarthritis pain. Never had any issues or ill effects from it that we ever knew of
Any questions you have should go directly to MD when it involves medications. For most normal average healthy people this would be very unlikely to have any sort of an affect, but elders, their medications, their alcohol intake, their weight, their liver health and just about EVERYthing else is known to their doctor. Therefore, any changes in medication (including vitamins and supplements, should always be run by the doc. Best of luck.
Having said that, I have been taking Tylenol daily for some years for Fibromyalgia pain with no apparent ill effects. I think it is safe as long as you don't exceed the recommended dose. I am careful about that.
Read labels and stick to guidelines to prevent this widely used pain and fever remedy from harming your liver. Cold, cough, and flu season is a good time to revisit the risks of acetaminophen — the pain and fever reliever in Tylenol and many other over-the-counter medications. Billions of doses of acetaminophen are consumed safely every year, but deaths still occur from accidental overdoses and thousands of people end up in the emergency room. More than 600 products contain acetaminophen, and inadvertently combining them can nudge you into the red zone. People don't realize that these doses all add up, and before you know it you've exceeded the recommended dose of acetaminophen."
But again - check with your doctor. (S)he knows your health best and what is OK or not OK for you.
