For How Long Can The Recommended Dose Of Tylenol Be Given?

So my daughter who is almost 7 months old has been teething for quite a while. I was giving her half the recommended dose of Tylenol X3 a day. I just realized that we have been giving it to her for longer than the recommended amount of days! Will she be okay? Is she going to have lasting damage because of my neglect to read the information? Please help, I just want my daughter to be okay :(
