Answer 2

No. Advil PM is not a sleep aid medicine, and like all synthetic drugs has a potential for abuse and harm to your body. Talk to your doctor about a possible case of insomnia if you have a history of prolonged difficulty of falling asleep.

Answer 3

As long as you stay under the recommended dosage of Tylenol per 24 hours, you should be fine. Tylenol is non-addictive. And the recommended dosage for Tylenol is 1500mg per 24 hour period.

Answer 4

It can be it really just depends on the amounts that you take it in. Over a period of time, it can do damage to either you kidneys or your liver.

Answer 5

Dr. Oz said on his show that an Advil PM is okay to take every night. However, I think we should ask the pharmacist or a regular physician.
