Yes Tylenol definitely helps me with the pain.
I take two extra strength capsules late morning and two more before i go to sleep around midnight. I was concerned that if taking the Tylenol with Prednisone would do more damage to my body. I checked with my liver specialist and she told me that taking no more than 4 Tylenol extra strength capsules a day is perfectly safe and will not harm my body. I even reached out to my pharmacist and they said the same thing, I was also told to stay away from Advil??

Keep asking.
Be sure and explain you are taking Tylenol for ARTHRITIS, not extra strength Tylenol. There is a difference and my Rehumy made it clear to me.

@paul767 yes. Stay away from Advil (ibuprofen). It is contraindicated.
