FDA Asks Health Care Providers to Limit Acetaminophen
Jennifer Davis writing for the Arthritis Foundation reported that in an attempt to encourage safer use of one of the most commonly taken medications, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has asked health care professionals to stop giving patients prescription combination drugs that contain more than 325 milligrams (mg) of acetaminophen per dose.
"By limiting the maximum amount of acetaminophen in prescription products to 325 mg per tablet, capsule, or other dosage unit, consumers will be less likely to overdose on acetaminophen if they mistakenly take too many doses of acetaminophen-containing products," explains FDA spokesperson Eric Pahon.
Comment: Acetaminophen is a dangerous drug whose side effects have been overlooked.
