I have a very bad head ache right now. It hurts all behind my left eye. I've taken two extra strength Tylenols, but they don't seem to be helping. Is it safe to take more then 2 within 4 hours even though the bottle does not recommend you to? Are there any other solutions out there to save my brain from splitting in half?

MFS answered Thursday July 22 2004, 5:03 pm: Do NOT take more Tylenol than what is recommended. It is possible to OD on Tylenol, and it is lethal.
I would recommend alternating with either aspirin or ibuprofen. Also, try taking a little caffeine, as that can help with headaches.
Drink lots of water, to make sure this isn't being caused by mild dehydration (more common that most people think). [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]
MotherJune answered Thursday July 22 2004, 4:56 pm: A headache behind the eye is a symptom linked to eyestrain. If you get these headaches after reading, TV, computer etc, then you need to have your eyes checked. You could have a need for glasses. Ibuprofen works well for headaches and general aches & pains (Advil or Excedrin). Don't let this go unchecked for too long. Make an appointment today.

Mackenzie answered Thursday July 22 2004, 3:59 pm: I'm soo sorrie to hear you have a headache!! I know what it's like; trust me!! I LIVE with a constant headache!! I have MSG sensitivity! Unless they has it also, there is NO way anyone could understand my constant headaches! It NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER goes away!! I've had it for years!! I get it from the foods I eat! Do you get headaches often?? Daily?? And I wouldn't suggest taking more than two extra strenght Tylenols. It's probably not a good idea. You should try sleeping! However, if you can't sleep.. then what the hell.. take ONE more pill! It's NOT a good idea to make that a regular thing.. but one time won't hurt you. I hope you feel better!!
