People taking acetaminophen at or near those upper limits are also advised to have regular liver tests done, and take NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) to potentially avoid/reduce possible liver damage.

yes one at a time and its 325mg so its not a high dosage. i have cut back this week to one every six hours.
