Tylenol is not particularly hepatotoxic, it's toxic effect after a single oral dose in adults occures at ~10-15 grams... or 20-30 500mg capsules or tablets.

For the FDA to allow OTC drugs to be OTC, the need to fit several criteria and a good safety profile is one of them. If you follow the recommended doses (and warnings on the label) and excercise common sense in terms of your dosage regimen, it is EXTREMELY unlikely to have toxicity with OTC drugs.

I hope this helps,

17aa gear stresses liver function by inhibiting degradation/metabolism therefore, increasing the half-life of the compound. Remember the does not have a finite # of cells. It is in a constent process of generating new ones. When drugs are introduced into the system at recommended FDA dosages, your liver can metabolize them without too much stress. However, if someone drinks alcohol, tylenol, winny, D-bol and A-50's then your organ would look worse than my moth-eaten sweater passed down from my grandfathers former college roomate. Elevated liver markers such as the P450 enzymes are tell-tale sign of hepatotoxicity. Herbal liver support formulas help a small degree. I think picrorhiza kurroa root extract(active ingredient is usually 4%standardized kutkin) is HIGHLY UNDERATED and IS MORE effective than milk thistle extract(standardized silymarin).

Ingesting tylenol, winny, D-bol, an A-50's would make your liver look worse than my moth-eaten hand-me-down from my grandpa's former roomate from college. Elevated liver markers such as the P450 enzymes are a tell-tale sign of heptotoxicity.

Herbal liver support formulas help to some degree by increasing bile flow. Picroliv the trade name for Picrorhiza kurroa root extract(usually standardized for 4% kutkin-the active ingredient) is HIGHLY UNDERRATED an IS MORE EFFECTIVE than milk thistle extract (usually with standardized silymarin).
