What is an example liver medicine that does not require a prescription?

Tylenol.
> Tylenol

This drug comes with warnings: “Taking acetaminophen and drinking alcohol in large amounts can be risky. Large amounts of either of these substances can cause liver damage. Acetaminophen can also interact with warfarin, carbamazepine (Tegretol), and cholestyramine. It can also interact with antibiotics like isoniazid and rifampin.”

It is on the consumer to read it.
