Will acetaminophen-codeine help a cough and cold for a child?

Adult formulations have more Tylenol(acetaminophen) in them than childrens' codeine/APAP syrups and could be lethal to a child. It is not worth the risk. Codeine is a cough suppressant, but, again, it is dangerous to give children adult medications. It is illegal to give anyone prescription medication if it is not prescribed for that person. For colds, nutritional support and increased fluids are helpful and for coughing, there are OTC cough medications or "steaming in the shower/bathroom" alternatives...until you can get pediatric medication.

Is Tylenol and Lexapro lethal?

Hell no, Lexapro affects your brain in a much different way than acetaminophen, or tylenol. If anything you'll feel more drowsy with these two drugs, considering how both promote drowsiness: Lexapro by promoting the effects of seritonin, and acetaminophen by its analgesic (pain releiving) and anti-inflamitory effects. Of course it is always possible to overdose. It could be lethal if you were to take to much lexapro at once but if the majority of the lethal dose were tylonol than you would have a slow and very painful death due to liver and kidney failure that could take up to two weeks. So always take as directed and ask your doctor if your dosage seems potentially harmful.


What is the lethal overdose of codeine?

It depends on a lot of differing circumstances; mainly how many milligrams you are taking per dose, how closely those doses are taken together (typically it should only be taken every four-eight hours), and what form it is being taken/used in (I.E. is it an ingredient in a cough syrup, or is it being taken in pill-form in the way of vicodin, Tylenol 3, or other narcotic analgesics).

82 milligrams is not the right unit name for alcohol. Also, if you meant 82 milliliters, it depends on its concentration level and the tolerance level for alcohol of the person's drinking it.


Will tyelnol pm kill a cat?

It is certainly not safe to give any medication to a cat without vet approval. Even in humans, an excess of Tylenol will cause fatal liver failure; and a cat is much smaller than a human and so the lethal dose would be much smaller even if the cat's metabolism is the same as a human's. As it turns out, a cat has a metabolic pathway that turns aspirin into cyanide; I don't know whether it has the same effect on acetaminophen (the active ingredient in Tylenol). Given the known side effects of the two anti-inflammatory drugs prescribed for cats (Prednisolone and Thalidomide), one would think that if Tylenol was at all possible to give to cats without harming them, vets would be using it.


How many Milligrams Can kill someone?

Tylenol is not measures in ml. It's measured in mg (milligrams). An adult should not consume more than 4000mg (8-500mg Extra Strength Tylenol) of Tylenol in one day. Any more than this is dangerous and can cause severe liver damage. Overdosing on Tylenol will not kill you quickly. It will take about 10000mg (20 tabs) over the period of 3-5 days to kill you. It will be a very painful and agonising death.
