marten-Tab Phrenilin, Acetaminophen W/butalbital Uses Marten-Tab is a pain reliever and sedative. It is used to relieve tension headaches. Storage Store at room temperature away from moisture and sunlight. Do not store in the bathroom. Overdose If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately.

How To Use To prevent upset stomach, take Marten-Tab with food or milk. Sustained-release preparations must be swallowed whole. Do not crush or chew them as this will destroy the long action and may increase side effects. Pain medications work best in preventing pain before it occurs.

Take this as prescribed. Do not increase your dose or take it more frequently without your doctor s approval.

If these symptoms persist or become bothersome, inform your doctor. If you do not have liver problems, the adult maximum dose of acetaminophen is 4 grams per day (4000 milligrams).
