DESCRIPTION

Each Extra Strength TYLENOL® PM Caplet, Geltab or Gelcap contains acetaminophen 500 mg and diphenhydramine HCl 25 mg. Each 30 mL = 2 Tablespoonfuls of TYLENOL® PM Liquid contains acetaminophen 1000 mg and diphenhydramine HCl 50 mg.

ACTIONS

Extra Strength TYLENOL® PM Caplets , Geltabs, Gelcaps, and Liquid contain a clinically proven analgesic-antipyretic and an antihistamine. Maximum allowable non-prescription levels of acetaminophen and diphenhydramine provide temporary relief of occasional headaches and minor aches and pains with accompanying sleeplessness. Acetaminophen is equal to aspirin in analgesic and antipyretic effectiveness and it is unlikely to produce many of the side effects associated with aspirin-containing products. Acetaminophen produces analgesia by elevation of the pain threshold. Diphenhydramine HCl is an antihistamine with sedative properties.

USES

temporary relief of occasional headaches and minor aches and pains with accompanying sleeplessness.
