Tylenol Precautions
Question: I have Hepatitis C and cannot take Tylenol, which you say offers the best relief from arthritis pain and stiffness. Do you let people know that if they have liver problems, they should seek the advice of their doctors before taking Tylenol?
Answer: Regarding your concern about seeking the advice of a doctor before taking Tylenol, I must agree with you. It is important to consult with your health care practitioner before taking any drug or nutrient.
Of course having Hepatitis C, as you do, limits the medications one can take. Therefore, a holistic approach to pain management becomes of even greater importance. There are nutritional steps you can take, exercises you can do, and meditations you can do to help with arthritis pain.
