In a healthy adult, 3000mg of acetaminophen is the maximum daily dose.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist how much is alright for you to take. This also depends on what other medications you are taking, since drugs like hydrocodone and oxycodone are often combined with acetaminophen.

How many milligrams of Tylenol can you take at a time?
Tylenol contains acetaminophen. The maximum daily dose of acetaminophen must not exceed 4000 mg ('daily' means 24 hours). It is not recommended to take more than 1000 mg of acetaminophen at a time. The interval between 1000 mg doses should be about 6 hours. 500 mg doses can be taken more frequently, e.g. every four hours. Each Tylenol 500 gelcap, etc, contains 500 mg of pure acetaminophen. So, the daily maximum is 8 doses of Tylenol 500, not more than two doses at a time. The less, the better, as acetaminophen is not good for the liver.

I have to give my daughter 10ml of Tylenol 3. The measuring tool is in milligrams. How many milligrams should I give her to equal 10 milliters?
Please don't try to do this. Tylenol (aka Acetaminophen) can be deadly; it's perfectly safe if you stick to the recommended dose, but the dangerous dose is only about twice this. The problem for you is this. 10 mL of pure acetaminophen would weigh a little over 10 grams; this much is about three times the recommended maximum daily dose for an adult. Obviously Tylenol 3 will not be pure, but to weigh it out you first need to find out how concentrated your stuff is, and then do some arithmetic. The only safe way is to do what you were told to do - give her 10 mL. If you have a pharmacist (UK=chemist) anywhere near you, he should be willing to give you a 5mL spoon free of charge. 2 of these and you have no possibility of mistakes. If it is currently night-time wherever you are you can give her one dose using an ordinary household teaspoon, but get a proper measuring spoon in the morning.

What happens when you take Advil and Dayquil at the same time?
Nothing will happen seeing as the new Dayquil contains acetaminophen and Advil contains Ibuprofen, which are two diffrerent pain relievers. The Advil is more a physical reliever, helps the aches, while the Dayquil, acetaminophen, works in the brain not peripherally. Just don't take too much. Listen and follow to the prescribed dosages and if uncomfortable take less then advised. In fact many doctors will prescribe both at the same time just at different hourly intervals i.e acetaminophen every 4-6 and ibuprofen every 6-8.
