A lot. If you're thinking about doing this, I don't recommend it.

The answer to this question would depend upon the person. The same amount that could overdose and kill an infant may not have the same effects on a 25 year-old healthy adult. Plus (without going into too many details) there are other factors to be taken into considerations as well, such as current health status.
Either way, I've posted a link: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) . In general, the recommended limit (spread throughout twenty-four hours), is 4000mg, or roughly 8 500mg pills, which for Tylenol is sometimes the 'extra strength' label.
I had two friends, one of which is no longer alive, who tried to commit suicide by using a pain-killer to overdose. For the friend who did not pass away, she tried to take nearly a dozen pills at once; permanent liver damage was done and she is now has heart problems - luckily she was treated quickly for this. So like I said, there is no 'set number' for a minimum, as it depends on the person, but regardless, the indications posted are for everyone's health. If you need more information you can look on this website, as it is pretty reliable. Hope that helped.
