Where Can I Buy Liquid Medicine?



Recommended Posts

Wait Wait Wait - I too had this dilemma.

I was told by one pharmacist that they no longer carry liquid tylenol. I almost paid a fortune on Amazon.< /p>

BUT - another pharmacist showed me what was right in front of my face the whole time.

Next time - Go look in the cold section and look for TYLENOL SORE THROAT. I figured there was other crap in it like a nyquil.

NOPE - ONLY ingredient is Acetaminophen 500 mg

They market it for sore throats to make it go down easier!!!!

Here is what it looks like:

You can buy the children's liquid Tylenol and just use a little more. I went out and bought some before hand but I was also prescribed a liquid Tylenol with codeine so I couldn't take the children's stuff anyways. The doctor gave me 1 refill and I got it but haven't needed it yet.

Just make sure if you get the childrens, you get sugar free. The sugar kind tastes great, but its loaded with sugar, and you only get a few doses per bottle!

You cant find it at any store? I've seen it all over in the cold section. You can also order it online from any drugstore.

First, ask the pharmacist...they are actually supposed to come out of their box and walk with you down the aisles to find stuff! Second...compared to how you were eating before the band is the kids stuff really too expensive? You are worth it!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
