Have You Heard What's New At Tylenol?

As the mother of 3 kids, I am quite familiar with fevers, tummy-aches, sore throats, teething pains, and all of the other common discomforts that can occur during childhood. Ahh, the joys of parenthood! There is nothing worse than having a sick, uncomfortable child, and as a mama, it is my first and foremost priority to ease my babies' pain when they're not feeling well. Tylenol is a name I have grown to trust over the years as a leader in children's pain relief and fever reducers. Whether it be teething, colds, post-immunization fever and crankiness, Tylenol has had MY back from day one. I have always experienced fast, dependable relief using Children's Tylenol Products, and these same products have helped my children feel better, time and time again.

You may have noticed recently that Children's Tylenol products have been somewhat scarce on the store shelves. I can still find it readily, but not in the quantity and range that I am accustomed to seeing. There is a good reason for this: Tylenol has been hard at work improving not only the formulation of their children's and infant acetaminophen products, but the dosage methods as well. Tylenol products were subject to recall due to some quality issues, and they have been working tirelessly to resolve these issues. Tylenol's primary concern is the safety of our children, and I am happy to share some of these exciting upgrades with you all!

The makers of TYLENOL® will be making product enhancements to both Infants’ and Children’s TYLENOL® products. In an effort to help ensure the following enhancements are widely implemented, the company has worked closely with the Consumer Healthcare Products Association to share its plans with other manufacturers.

What’s New?
Product Enhancements
As early as the upcoming cold and flu season, Infants’ TYLENOL® will include a new, enhanced bottle with a protective opening and push-in syringe which will:
  •  Provide even better dosing accuracy and ease of administration to infants
  •  Allow for better control when dispensing the medication and reduce spillage
  • Further reduce the risk of children being able to get to the medicine in the bottle
We will also be introducing enhanced bottles with the protective opening on Children’s TYLENOL® products.

The Concentration
There will be new dosing directions related to the change in concentration on Infants’ TYLENOL® as early as this upcoming cold and flu season.
  • Infants’ TYLENOL® will have the same concentration of the active ingredient, acetaminophen, as Children’s TYLENOL®, which will standardize dosing across our products and age groups.
  • We have been working closely with other manufacturers of pediatric acetaminophen products to encourage an industry wide transition to one concentration across infants’ and children’s acetaminophen products.
  • There will be a time period when more than one concentration of infants’ acetaminophen products will be available in stores and parents and caregivers might have both in their medicine cabinets. Caregivers should be mindful to always read and follow the dosing directions on the package that is being used.
  •  When Infants’ TYLENOL® products return to store shelves, they will include these changes.
  •  As always, Infants’ and Children’s TYLENOL® products will continue to include specially designed dosing devices appropriate to the age of the child.
  • Parents and caregivers should contact their child’s healthcare provider if they have questions about dosing instructions.

Helpful Tips for Giving Medicines to Infants and Children:

Simply remember to NURSE
  • Never give adult medicines to children.
  • Use the measuring device (syringe, dropper, dosage cup) that comes with the medicine every time you use it. Don’t use kitchen spoons (teaspoons or tablespoons).
  • Read and follow instructions on the label. Never give more than the recommended dose and do not give the medication more frequently than recommended.
  • Store all medicines out of the reach of children. Immediately following use, always restore the child resistant cap and put the medicine back into a high and out of sight location.
  • Every child grows. Know the infant’s or child’s weight and/or age to help determine the appropriate dosage.
I am personally very happy to hear about these changes to the Children's Tylenol product line, and will continue to be a loyal customer. It is a relief to know that there is a company that has such a commitment to the health and well-being of my children, and that they are willing to constantly improve their products to ensure their safety.
