huh ... I read labels. I also read inserts. Don't recall ever reading one that said that the damage caused by acetaminophen is exponentially worse when you have alcohol in your system. Ever. It is true nonetheless. Don't remember ever reading one saying that megadoses were possible when using a contraceptive patch or ring. Which is also true. Just for examples.
Not only are those things hard to read (and my reading skills are outstanding, thank you...) they do not contain more than they are required to contain. The recent recommendation about tylenol has not yet been implemented by the way, so reading the label will get you nowhere with that. At present it's only a recommendation.
