Both Regular Strength and Extra Strength TYLENOL contain acetaminophen, the active ingredient which works to relieve mild to moderate pain.

Acetaminophen is considered an excellent choice because it is the least likely of all over-the-counter pain relievers to cause stomach irritations and interact with other medications. TYLENOL is widely used to treat pain due to:

• Fever
• Headaches (migraine and tension headaches)
• Arthritis
• Muscle aches and sprains
• Menstrual cramps

Dosage
Adults (12 years and older): 1-2 caplets, tablets or gelcaps every 4 hours as required. It is hazardous to exceed 12 (Regular Strength) or 8 (Extra Strength) caplets per day.
