Right Remedies Extra Strength Pain Relief PM Caplet is used for temporary relief of occasional headaches and minor aches and pains that can make it hard to sleep. It works by combining ingredients that help reduce pain and promote drowsiness. Adults and children 12 years and older should take 2 caplets at bedtime, but it's important not to take more than 2 caplets in a 24-hour period. A key warning is that this medication contains acetaminophen, which can cause severe liver damage if you take more than 4,000 mg in a day or if you drink 3 or more alcoholic beverages daily while using it. If you are taking the blood thinner warfarin, be sure to consult with your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
