Liquid Tylenol??????



Recommended Posts

I was told to keep liquid Tylenol around after surgery. I can't find it anywhere. Any suggestions? I know you can buy it in childrens Tylenol but if I buy that I will have to take twice as much. Don't they sell it in Liquid for adults???

Hi Jamie!

I used the childrens tylenol, and yes, you have to use twice as much. Another thing was the suger content was very high... yuck!

Thankfully I didnt need it very often. :)

It is in a red box by the regular tylenol. It is very hard to spot because it is in a box. Ask someone that works in the Pharmacy, they will know right where it is. I get it a Wal Mart.

Jamie, it's liquid tylenol for Adults. (1 Tablespoon = 1000 mg. of acetaminophen (tylenol). If you can't find that one, Tylenol Sore Throat Liquid (Maximum Strength) is the identical thing. I ran into that same problem and a sweet pharmacist told me that. Just different packaging.

Thanks Paula/ Kelly/ NewHope I will look again. I just figured I should keep some handy,but if worse comes to worse and I can't find the adult kind I always have the childrens liquid because of my little girl. It's kinda funny when you get to take your kids medicine. LOL!!!

I get mine at Walmart. It's always way up high on the shelf. Like Kelly said it is in a red box.

No wonder I can't find it if its above 5'0'' I never see things that high and I sure can't reach them! HaHa!!!!

I hope the Pharmacist is taller than me or we will never find it!!LOL!!!

Wal Mart oR Savons, it always on the top shelf noit where you would think it is, ask the pharmacist she will direct you to where it is. I keep it on hand at all times, it works wonders for those monthly cramps, I just took some last night :)

I bought mine at CVS pharmacy, and saw it at Walgreens. Marie is exactly right about the sore throat liquid tylenol; it's the same thing, with nothing extra added, just the acetaminophen. The liquid in either type is like taking 2 extra strength tylenol pills @ 1000mg, (regular tylenol is 650 mg for 2 pills).

I have been on the look out for those excedrin quick tabs, (acetaminophen and caffeine). Anyone know where to find these anymore??

I found some at my local IGA a while back after looking every where, so I bought 2 boxes, but those are nearly gone, and I can't find them again. :)

They have a minty taste and melt fairly quick, but I still need a drink to rinse the taste out. I just like them because I can keep them in my purse for when I'm away from home.

When I'm out of the quick tabs, I carry a bottle of childrens aspirin, and a bottle of children's acetaminophen chewables for headaches, but I have to take a combination of the two so it's a gazillion aspiriny tasting fruity pills to chew up... bleh

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
