The safe dose depends on body weight. 650mg 4 times a day is an appropriate dose for a healthy adult. If you are very slim, you might need to adjust to a lesser dose.

Maximum dosage of any paracetamol should not exceed 4g per day
So it's better you take dolo 4 times in a day at 6th hourly intervals
