Tylenol, trademarked brand of acetaminophen (paracetamol), a pain reliever and fever reducer introduced in 1955 by McNeil Laboratories, Inc. Tylenol later was owned by the Johnson & Johnson pharmaceutical conglomerate, and in 2023 it came under the control of the consumer health business Kenvue, a Johnson & Johnson spin-off.

Acetaminophen was initially synthesized in 1878 by American chemist Harmon Northrop Morse. Morse used a two-step process, in which the nitro group in 4-nitrophenol, in the presence of tin and glacial acetic acid, is first reduced to form the intermediate compound 4-aminophenol, which then undergoes acetylation to form acetaminophen. In the following decades acetaminophen gained interest as a potential analgesic (pain-relieving drug), though uncertainties about its safety stalled its development. About the same time, the analgesic drug aspirin emerged and quickly dominated the market, contributing to a loss of interest in acetaminophen and the drug being largely forgotten.

In the late 1940s the medicinal properties of phenacetin and acetanilide, both commonly used to treat fever and pain at the time, were attributed to a shared metabolite, acetaminophen. In 1949 McNeil Laboratories, a family-run firm, pursued the use of acetaminophen as a safer alternative to its precursor drugs. By 1955 the company had introduced Tylenol, a trademarked name for acetaminophen, as TYLENOL Elixir for Children. In 1959 Johnson & Johnson acquired McNeil, and soon after the drug was made available over the counter as an alternative to aspirin.

Over time Tylenol became a leader in the analgesic market. Before the 1982 “Tylenol scare,” the brand held about 37 percent of the U.S. over-the-counter analgesic market. That dominance was shaken when seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Extra Strength Tylenol capsules that had been tampered with and laced with cyanide. Johnson & Johnson ordered an unprecedented recall of some 31 million bottles, costing the company an estimated $100 million. The scare briefly drove Tylenol’s market share down to single digits, but swift action and the introduction of tamper-resistant packaging helped the brand regain public trust.

Uses and forms

Tylenol is most often taken to ease minor pain—including headache, backache, arthritis-related pain, toothache, muscle soreness, and menstrual cramps. It also is effective in temporarily lowering fever. Relative to certain other pain relievers, such as aspirin and ibuprofen, it is considered to be safer for persons with stomach problems or kidney disease and people who are older than 60.

Tylenol is available in different forms, including capsules, tablets, chewables, liquids, and dissolvable powders. There also are extended-release versions of the drug and varying formulations, such as Extra Strength Tylenol, which contains a more concentrated dose than regular-strength formulas. Tylenol PM combines acetaminophen with diphenhydramine, an antihistamine with sedative properties. This combination facilitates sleep while providing pain relief at night. Tylenol Cold and Flu includes ingredients such as decongestants and cough suppressants in both daytime and nighttime formulas.

Side effects

Tylenol is usually safe when taken as directed, but it can produce side effects that range in severity. Most reactions are mild—for example, nausea, digestive discomfort, headaches, or minor skin rashes. Serious reactions, such as allergic responses involving swelling, hives, or breathing difficulty, are rare, as is Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a life-threatening skin condition characterized by widespread blistering and peeling of the skin and mucous membranes. The greatest risk is liver toxicity, which arises primarily from overdose, prolonged high intake, or combining the drug with alcohol or other acetaminophen-containing medicines. Heavy, long-term use has also been associated with kidney damage. Since acetaminophen is found in many common pain and common cold products, accidental overdose remains a significant public health concern.

Research has also suggested a correlation among acetaminophen use during pregnancy, hormone disruption, and the development of neurological conditions in children. These possible links have raised concerns about its use by pregnant women, for whom acetaminophen is the only over-the-counter option for the treatment of pain and fever. In 2025 U.S. Pres. Donald Trump asserted that Tylenol use during pregnancy is tied to the development of autism in children, despite a lack of scientific evidence for a causal link. In response the U.S. Food and Drug Administration initiated a label change on Tylenol and other acetaminophen-containing products to warn pregnant women of a potential increased risk of autism, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and other neurological conditions in children.
