Hi,
Thank you for using Just Answer. You should follow the prescribing physicians instructions for this medication. Usual dosing for Darvocet N-100 is 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. The thing that you need to be aware of is the acetaminophine (tylenol) content in Darvocet. Each tablet of Darvocet N-100 contains 650mg. It is reccomended not to exceed 4 Gm of acetaminophen per day. Over 4 Gm of acetaminophin can lead to toxicity to the liver.
I hope you find this information helpful. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
