  • Women's Tylenol Menstrual Relief Caplets (McNeil Consumer)

    DESCRIPTION

    Each Women's Tylenol® Menstrual Relief Caplet contains acetaminophen 500 mg and pamabrom 25 mg.

    ACTIONS

    Women's TYLENOL® Menstrual Relief Caplets contain a clinically proven analgesic-antipyretic and a diuretic. Maximum allowable non-prescription levels of acetaminophen and pamabrom provide temporary relief of minor aches and pains due to cramps, headache, and backache and water retention, weight gain, bloating, swelling and full feeling associated with the premenstrual and menstrual periods. 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. Pamabrom is a diuretic which relieves water retention.

      • cramps · headache · backache
