For people 12 and older, directions on how to take is 1 or 2 tablets every four hours; or 3 tablets every six hours, not to exceed 12 tablets in a 24 hour period, unless otherwise indicated by a doctor. It is a pain reliever. Since I can't take anything else, I take aspirin, usually no more than 1, sometimes two, a day.
