Tylenol is terrible…

[+ FrankR]

So apparently Tylenol is now terrible. Anyone switching to Advil? 🫣

I have long switched to Aleve at least a decade ago. 

[LookingAround]

Of course not lol

[+ Lucky]

Aleve is an NSAID, is it not? NSAIDs are a whole different category with side effects of their own. Especially if you have kidney disease- very dngerous.

You must first try, mister.

Tylenol has a history of doing harm.  Anyone remember the Tylenol Murders back in the early 80’s when they found someone had put cyanide in Tylenol capsules, killing 7 people?  Now we all have to fight our way through 237 non-tampering layers to get to our drugs and other products.  I think Tylenol started it because they knew what would happen and that we’d all need Tylenol to get rid of the headaches the extra packaging causes.

(This was not supposed to be taken seriously, folks!)

All drugs are harmful. But your example of the poisoning is a case of blaming the victim. “She got raped because she was wearing a mini skirt” “Poison was added because Tylenol use bottles”.  And 237 layers? Exaggerate much??

There a medical professional, no matter what you know says, there is nothing inherently wrong with acetaminophin.  In large doses and if used over a long period of time however, it can kill your liver.  Ibuprofen (advil and motrin) will destroy your kidneys, nut none of them cause autism except when the speaker has dementia.

But, did you read the opinion of RFK, Jr?

NSAIDs can cause stomach issues too, aggravate or cause ulcers.

Let’s be clear, it’s not acetaminophen that causes autism, it’s Tylenol. Why only Tylenol? Because he has a grudge against the CEO of the manufacturer (and because he can’t pronounce acetaminophen) 😆

Tylenol made me a homo.

I am glad you called it an opinion. Fact based it is not. Meanwhile measles outbreaks continue to accelerate according to the USA Today.

The only OTC med I use (very rarely) is Bayer aspirin. I don’t believe I’ve ever used Tylenol.
