I know it's a meme but please remember that 5 g in one day are enough to kill you.

ETA: Painfully.

And alcohol interacts with it and increases the risk. So, 2.5g + alcohol is enough to kill you.
- Please, if you’re pregnant, do not mix alcohol and Tylenol. Choose one or the other*.
  *i am not a doctor. This is not medical advice
- Even a single gram can be fatal if fired at sufficient velocity!
- So I heard alcohol increases the rate of birth defects but pregnancy increases the risk of alcohol and alcohol increases the risk of pregnancy it's recursive!
- If it does kill you, it'll often be a slow, drawn out death that takes days, if not weeks to kill you. And if it doesn't kill you, it'll give you permanent liver damage. I'm honestly shocked that it's available over the counter, with how close the toxic dose is to the therapeutic dose. Scary stuff
Yeah that's 3 days worth of Tylenol at one every six hours even waking up to take one overnight. You need serious pain to justify that.
And while you might get away with 2 in one dose once or twice if you take it infrequently, the harm is cumulative so don't be trying to claim you can do that for days on end.
Baby won't get born at all if Mama dies of organ failure
- or from Fevers that can damage organs and babies, from an infeciton.
that's 10 pills a day. WTF.

Make sure you ask your husband or an opinionated older white man first!

Now that you're pregnant, you'll need to run all your decisions past someone with rights, like your husband or a congressman.
- I'm sorry misinformed peasant but as soon as a female embryo exists it needs male guardianship. Can't leave that incubator unattended!
Opinionated older white man here, I think people should do whatever they want.
- No no not like that
- I hereby vote WOLF FOR PRESIDENT & SUPREME RULER!

I'm not pregnant, but I intentionally reached for the Tylenol yesterday for a headache.

I never hesitated or thought twice about whether I should take it, and the thought that taking Tylenol would harm me didn't cross my mind.

Acetaminophen is not the problem that some people seem to want to make it out to be.

What did bother me is that the Epstein files are not public right now. Convict and man in the Epstein files, Donald Trump, should go ahead and release them.

The autism claims are unfounded BS, but Acetaminophen is problematic for your liver. Small doses are fine, but a dose the size in the post could cause severe harm or death

- And too much water will cause you to dilute the electrolytes in your body so much that you can no longer command your heart to beat.
  Anything is dangerous if you use it wrong enough.
Acetaminophen is not the problem that some people seem to want to make it out to be.
No, it doesn't cause autism, but there are certainly safer painkillers. That's why I'll take ibuprofen or aspirin instead, if I have a choice.
- Ibuprofen is not recommended for people with hypertension and with prolonged use, leads to leads to stomach issues. And aspirin lowers platelet adhesion, so also carries risk for people with who bleed easily. Everything carries a risk, that's why studies help show what those risk are and how to minimize/avoid. That's the nuisance missing from the national discussion, kinda intentionally. The right dose is therapeutic, any more and kiss your liver/kidneys goodbye for most drugs.

Back when gaza war started, someone in the comments referred to Jews as a race. I felt like correcting them, literally copy-pasted a line from wikipedia that says they're ethnoreligious group, not a race. I was banned permamently for hate speech/bigotry.

How dare you bring universally accepted facts to a modern discussion. That's fucking antisemitic.
There is only one human race —Homosapiensapiens.
Jewish is both an ethnicity (what people think of as race) and a religion.
- they also have associated genetic disease more pervasive/exclusive in thier populations than others
race is a social construct, I don't think wikipedia would have a definitive list of races
- I'm not sure I'm following your argument. Almost everything is a social construct to humans, that does not make it un-true. I feel like this is one of those anarchistic things people say just to appear smart, while in reality it's meaningless.
I mean you are kinda wrong too
- Elaborate.
  Just in case, this is where I copied it from, the very first sentence; https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews
Ah yes you just reminded me of the time I was banned from Reddit too for copy-pasting a fact from Wikipedia 🤦🏼‍♀️
The descriptor race in English tends to mean people of a certain ethnicity. I.e. you wrong. Also race theory sucks and is Nazi ideology.
- you wrong. Also race theory sucks and is Nazi ideology
  Unhinged. It's not a nazi ideology, it's biology. We can tell races apart from looking at the bones, race is not an imaginary thing.
  EDIT: I do feel like pointing out that what you do with this information can be classified as racism, but saying races exist is not a nazi ideology.

Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.

Yes but can you agree that the post is funny because it's insulting reddit?
Spez's mom must've severely OD'd on Tylenol when he was in her womb because he became an ultimate autism supreme commander.
- Using autism as an insult is pretty bad taste tbh
- No.

Why is this trending so much lately? I only know it's autism candy or something

rfk jr is claiming that Tylenol (not acetaminophen, specifically Tylenol) causes autism and not vaccines lol
- The real active ingredient was the BRANDING.
I wondered too. Seems to be related to the new America.
https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/autism-announcement-tylenol-causes-autism-press-conference
- Yall the real mvps, thanks lemmings! I tune out a bit on the world news, always more to be depressed about lol.

You know what's funny to imagine, Trump standing up and in his rambling incohate voice declaring "We found that guns cause autism" can you imagine the existential sundering this would cause among his base. The mental backflips. Its a shame Trump isn't a better shitposter and just came out with this weak ass paracetamol shit.

What?! Director of Network Control Systems for Union-Pacific?! I had such high hopes for you!

I love how they chose fucking acetaminophen as a drug to go after. Probably one of the literal safest OTC drugs, and we've known that for nearly half a century.

It kills your liver if you use it for prolonged periods of time.... But totally unrelated. Just remember to drink enough water and you'll be fine.
- Oh of course. I don't mean to say that no risk exists with it, but it's still probably one of the safest OTC drugs
- Also don't take more than the recommended max dosage. Taking 10 grams of acetaminophen in 24 hours is enough for possible fatal liver damage. That's 20 to 30 pills, depending on dosage.
  For comparison, ibuprofen has an LD50 of 636mg/kg of body weight. For 70kg bodyweight, that means consuming over 40 grams of ibuprofen (200+ regular strength pills).

She’s gonna need more….

Be carefull! The baby can become a dogwalker!!

What drug is Tylenol because I always just assumed it was an antihistamine but apparently it's a painkiller?

It's just the most popular American brand of paracetamol/acetaminophen/APAP. It's also the only synonym for the drug that our President knows how to pronounce.
Lol yes, it’s a painkiller haha. Fairly mild, too, but usually the extra-strength version is what you’ll get after surgeries and stuff.
Benadryl is the kleenex of anti-allergy meds.
- Don’t take Benadryl (diphenhydramine). Shit would never be approved for use if it were invented today. It fucks with your brain, messes with your reflexes, and is correlated strongly with dementia.
  Second and third generation antihistamines work better and are non-drowsy.
Tylenol is an extremely common and successful brand of pain relief medicine sold until very recently by Johnson & Johnson. The active ingredient is N-acetyl-para-aminophenol. This has been variously shortened to Acetaminophen, Paracetamol, or indeed Tylenol. Other medicines are sold under the Tylenol brand, such as Tylenol PM which is Acetaminophen and Dyphenhydramine (the drowsiness medication with a side effect of allergy relief that powers Benadryl and Sominex).
- Here in Europe I've only ever seen it sold as paracetamol, and it tends to just be generic supermarket brand. Looking in my medicine, random keys, and elastic bands draw (everyone has one) even my allergen medication is just sold as antihistamine, with no branding.
Acetominophen, an analgesic (for pain) and antipyretic (for fever). It's not an antihistimine.
I have never used it, and never will. Far too toxic on the liver and blocking fever is a bad idea during infection.

thank you for your service
