How To Use Take Epidrin exactly as prescribed. Do not increase your dose or take this more often than directed. For migraine headaches, take two capsules at the first sign of an attack. Then take one capsule every hour as needed until the headache is relieved. Do not take more than 5 capsules in a 12 hour period. In tension headaches, usually no more than 8 capsules a day are recommended. Do not exceed the maximum dose prescribed. Epidrin contains acetaminophen. Do not take more acetaminophen than recommended (see Side Effects section). Side Effects Dizziness may occur as your body adjusts to the medication. If this effect continues or becomes bothersome, inform your doctor. If you do not have liver problems, the adult maximum dose of acetaminophen is 4 grams per day (4000 milligrams). If you take more than the maximum daily amount, it may cause serious (possibly fatal) liver disease. Tell your doctor immediately if you have any of the following symptoms of liver damage: severe nausea, yellowing eyes or skin, dark urine, stomach pain, extreme fatigue.

Since small amounts of Epidrin are found in breast milk, consult your doctor before breast-feeding. Missed Dose If you miss a dose, take it as soon as remembered; do not take it if it is near the time for the next dose, instead, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not double-up the dose to catch up. Drug Interactions Tell your doctor of any over-the-counter or prescription medication you may take or have recently taken, including: antidepressants, MAO inhibitors (e.g., furazolidone, linezolid, phenelzine, selegiline, tranylcypromine). Acetaminophen is an ingredient in many nonprescription products and in some combination prescription medications. Read the labels carefully before taking other pain relievers, fever reducers, or cold products to see if they also contain acetaminophen. Consult your pharmacist if you are uncertain if your other prescription or nonprescription products contain acetaminophen. (Also see maximum daily dose information in Side Effects section). Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
