They may pull extra strength Tylenol from shelves..
Tylenol is the only thing that works for my backaches, I don't know what I will do if they pull it. I guess I will go get a prescription for oxycontin if they are gonna screw me of my only pain relief. I have a mild curve in my spine so sometimes my back hurts a little bit. Annoying, they take everything away. People know the risks of liver damage if they take it excessively, let people choose for themselves, we are not children so stop treating us like we are. Cigarettes cause cancer and alcohol causes liver damage but you don't see them pulling those off the shelves so why Tylenol?

its a way of making it more expensive
more profits- add the cost of seeing a doctor
add the cost of making it a prescription only

they've been ignoring it causes liver damage because
the over dose created internal bleeding
once the tiny vessels break in the liver
there's no way of "fixing" them

the sad thing folks like me
with no doctor or insurance
means no nerve pain relief if i'd choose to use it

actually its annoying

Can you just double up on the regular strength Tylenol?
