FYI: Infant tylenol

The FDA is now requiring that manufacturers make all tylenols the same strength so don't bother buying the infant version as it's usually only 1-2 ounces of the exact same thing as children's tylenol which costs the same amount.  The only benefit is it comes with a smaller dispenser for easier dispensing.  Just ask the pharmacy for a 1 ml syringe.  Just wanted to let people know so they can save some money.

I'd also check the strength and mention it to the doctor as stores are allowed to sell the old concentrated bottles until they run out.

    Just saw someone mentioned the dual dosages so you can ignore that.

    Even though I knew about the different doses (I wrote the other post), I didn't realize that the other strength was the same for infants and children. Thanks for helping me save money! My LO is 6 months old, and we still have half of our first bottle (the old, stronger concentration). I will definitely by the children's version next time.
