Use as directed
Rest assured that serving you and your loved ones is our #1 priority. Please find our dosing guides here along with some frequently asked questions with answers from the makers of TYLENOL®.
TYLENOL® (acetaminophen) is indicated for the temporary reduction of fever and the temporary relief of minor aches and pains associated with the common cold, headache, toothache, muscular aches, backache, minor pain of arthritis, and premenstrual and menstrual cramps.
While TYLENOL® is indicated for fever which is a common symptom of COVID-19, TYLENOL® is not indicated for the treatment or prevention of COVID-19.
Talk to your doctor if you have questions about your symptoms or COVID-19.
To date, we have not seen any scientifically reliable data to support an association between the use of ibuprofen and worsened outcomes from COVID-19.
TYLENOL® is safe and effective when used as directed. The safety of TYLENOL® at recommended doses has been established through 50 years of use and scientific investigation. Do not exceed the recommended dosage as it may cause liver damage.
Each person should speak to their healthcare provider about what treatment option may be right for them for their individual condition or needs.
We want you all to know that we are working day and night to deliver our TYLENOL® products you know and trust. We added resources to our plants to ensure TYLENOL® production runs at maximum capacity.
TYLENOL® is safe and effective when used as directed. We do not recommend using any products beyond their expiration date. If your product has expired, please contact your local pharmacy to learn about how to properly discard it and obtain a new product.
TYLENOL® contains Acetaminophen and may be appropriate for patients who are concerned about the effects that NSAIDs can have on blood pressure. TYLENOL® does not interfere with certain blood pressure medications the way Ibuprofen and Naproxen sometimes can. We encourage you to talk to your doctor if you want to know more or have other questions.
TYLENOL® is not a blood thinner. If you are under a doctor's care for any serious condition, or are taking any other drugs, you should talk to your doctor if you want to know more or have other questions.
Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in TYLENOL®, has not been shown to reduce inflammation.
