Decent doctors have gotten away from both barbiturates and tranquilizers.
Both have lots of interesting side effects that smart people stay away from
(smiling while staring at walls for days at a time is a good one). That
makes it harder to find legal sources for them. Not so legal sources are
still relatively easy, of course. Just ask your local pusher. (The street
name used to be 'reds').

I don't know exact dosages for tylenol toxicity. I suppose I could find out
if someone REALLY wanted to know, but I don't. I DO know that there have
been cases where people have swallowed ~50-100 aspirin (at 500mg/each) and
lived (didn't know you could die from aspirin, did you? *grin*). The
tylenol level is much lower than that so I guess if you can keep a bottle
down (the body usually tries to do something silly like throw up) it should
take care of things. I'd say that under some circumstances (small body
weight with sensitivity) you might cause liver damage with as few as 8-10
500mg pills (remembering that they are available up to 1500mg, I believe).
That is why professionals tend to be real worried about these things. The
margin of error is very small. I'd personally suggest using some other
product. Motrin has just been put on the over the counter list, if I
remember right. I don't know if there is a product using it yet, but it
is safe (I believe) for those that can't use aspirin and isn't nearly as
picky as the Tylenol products.
