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

        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
