Tylenol Children's Cold, Cough & Sore Throat Oral Suspension FAQs
Can I use “adult” TYLENOL for my child as an alternative to Children’s TYLENOL?
It is important that consumers always read and follow the product label of any TYLENOL product and only use such products as directed. - Extra Strength TYLENOL products are intended for adults and children 12 years and older and should not be administered to children younger than 12 years. - Regular Strength TYLENOL products are intended for adults and children 6 years and older and should not be administered to children younger than 6 years. Per the label, parents and caregivers of young children should ask their doctor if their child’s age is below the directed dosing instructions or if they have questions.
Is there a difference between the Children’s TYLENOL Liquid and Children’s TYLENOL1 Chewables?
Children’s TYLENOL Suspension (Liquid) and Children’s TYLENOL Chewables differ by dosage form and by available flavors. Both products are safe and effective for use in children ages 2-11 years when used as directed and provide the same doses of acetaminophen when used according to the label.
Should my child take the Liquid or Chewables product?
This is personal preference, or as directed by your healthcare professional. Both the Children’s TYLENOL Suspension and the Children’s TYLENOL Chewables are safe and effective for children ages 2-11 years when used as directed.
