Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 We were interested in the following quote with the reference to tylenol. Peg prefers tylenol (both regular and tylenol III) as a pain killer. I'm not sure of the implications of the statements being made here. Does anyone have some additional insights about the use of tylenol by MSA patients? Peg and Jim from Guam > I think glutamine, creatine and lecithin have uses too. NAC needs the B > vitamins, vitamin C and selenium to be effective. Magnesium also may be > useful. > > What someone who is taking NAC or cysteine doesn't need is tylenol. Tylenol > and NAC work against each other. Tylenol poisoning from an overdose stops > the liver from creating glutathione and if an antidote isn't given soon > enough the patient's liver fails and the patient dies. > > But is tylenol dangerous in small doses? I don't think anyone knows for sure > but since tylenol works against the production of glutathione and if not > enough glutathione is being produced and there is an alternative to tylenol > that could be used in its place - why take the chance? ******************************** *** Peg & Jim *** # 29 Cruz Heights *** Ipan-Talofofo, Guam 96930-4736 *** USA *** *** Note: Guam is 15 hours ahead of *** Eastern Standard Time (EST). *** 14 ahead of EDT. ******************************** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
