Not "exceeding the maximum dose" just "approaching the maximum dose".
"Hey, you're almost taking exactly the amount of this thing we say you can take. Watch out!" is pretty much the definition of a spurious alert to me. It's telling you that what you expect to happen is happening.

So you'd want to warn before they can give another dose of medication that would take you over the line. Really depends on how far off the line the warning is. But either way, in this case I'm pretty sure Tylenol was stressed in the article because it was an example of an innocuous medication, which it really kind of isn't.
