Hi guys,

I'm still stocking my pantry with all the great things you guys have suggested.....but I have a question.

Which liquid Tylenol am I suppossed to buy? Is it the childrens tylenol? Because the only adult version seems to be tylenol cold. Is there a plain liquid tylenol for adults?

And I'm still working on adding to the puree and mushy list of the Help Me Stock My Pantry. I NEVER thought the list would have become so popular.....I bet I have sent it to about 75 people!! So now I feel a since of responsiblity to make it as complete as possible. But since my surgery is still 38 hours away.....I haven't went through these stages and could use some help adding to the list. I'm not really looking for recipes (I'll do that next) but just things to purchase and have on hand.

I hope to find a place to attach this on the site for futher member just to be able to print off, but that has proven to be a challenge thus far. I have tried to attach it as a document to the original thread and it won't accept the file (tells my I am not authorized). I have changed the file extension. but still no luck. So if you have successfully atttached a document to a post, please let me know how you did it. When I fiish the list this weekend, I will try using the advance uploader that is list at the bottom of the page when you are making a post....maybe that will work.

i bought the one from CVS PAIN RELIEF ADULT LIQUID its the same as tylenol

Thank you

I also found the regular adult Tylenol (not cold) at Walmart next to the regular advils, tylenols, etc.

I did not see it at a local Fred Meyer (Kroger chain), and have not looked elsewhere.

The lady at my walmart looked at me like I was crazy!! I looked with regular tylenol was and there wasn't even a spot for it....thats why I was thinking it might be childrens tylenol....I kept thinking I would need to drink the whole bottle to get the milligrams in to make a difference.--haha

I found liquids Tylenol and the store brand at CVS pharmacy. It does come in adult dosage!

I got the tylenol csore throat. The only thing that's in it is acetomenofin 500 mg. One of the other posters told me bout that.

I just requested it from the Walmart pharmacist and she ordered a bottle of the adult tylenol. You're right, if you get children's you would have to take nearly the whole bottle!

Liquid Tylenol got recalled or something, so its difficult to find. I just got 2 bottles of the children's pain reliver from Target and I'll use a double dose.

Def. look for store brand soo much cheaper. When I had surgery one of the pharmacies were having a buy one get one free sale which was great. Even the adult strength there is not a lot of doses per bottle. Since I am allergic to codein/morphine I ONLY took Tylenol/Acetaminophen. If you are only taking tylenol do be careful about the dosing. I did take the max amount allowed the first couple days trying to stay ahead of the pain.

Please note however my pain level was very manageable. I was very concerned presurgery after reading posts on here about how bad their pain was; knowing I can't take stronger pain killers.

ThAnks for list!

We all are Superstars!*

I just buy the kids liquid advil...but back in the day I remember getting a kids quick dissolve tylenol (big tablets that look like Tums) for my mom who was elderly etc...it just melted away and seems like it would be good. Grape I think...
