Liquid Tylenol and Liquid Advil where do you buy it???



Recommended Posts

I was told I could take liquid Tylenol when I return to work in replacement of the prescribed Hyrdrocodone which makes me drowsy. I looked for it at Walmart, couldn't find it, I asked the pharmacist and she told me that there was no liquid Tylenol and that I have to use liquid children's Tylenol. I took it today and it didn't take away the pain. I took 400mg the same amount I would take if I were taking the pill form. I ended up taking the Hydrocodone.

Where did you guys find your liquid Tylenol and Advil?

I have no idea, I tried a few places like CVS and Target and I was told by the pharmacist that it was recalled.

Yes brand name liquid Tylenol was recalled and probably wont be back until at least Christmas time. You have to buy the generic versions... They have it at drugstores and big box stores around me.

By the way, I was told several times that band patients can not take advil post op since it thins the blood and contributes to ulcers in band patients. Tylenol is OK.

My local Wal-Mart carries adult liquid tylenol.

I'm hoping this pharmacist was referring to the recall instead of actually not knowing that Tylenol came in a liquid form for adults. Kind of scary considering I do shop at Walmart. Though when I know I'll need to ask a question I tend to go to other drug stores.

I had a hard time finding liquid adult acetaminophen, too--my pharmacist ordered it.

I was told NO Advil (or other NSAIDs) at all, post-banding, so check with your doctor about that before taking it.

I've seen the liquid adult tylenol in most drug stores and both supermarkets I go to... but it only comes in cherry flavor... ICK... didn't want to be gagging after surgery!!! I just went with the junior tylenol meltaways in grape... 6 of them is 960 mg which is fine for a 1000 mg dose.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
