Thats the messed up part that I dont understand though.....the advil doesnt make me feel out of sorts which is why I like it.....the Tylenol (from the shelf) withOUT the Psuedophedrine makes me feel like my heart is spazzing and my muscles twitchy!!

Anyway .....still feel like crap and hope this thing clears up REAL SOON........

Hope you feel better. Really do.
Tylenol/acetaminophin is only supposed to be an anti-inflammatory and a pain killer. Same as advil/ibuprophen. And aspirin.
Not stimulants.
Fine print? Nothing else in it?
They do package tylenol and advil with sudafed.
I'll see what I can find out.
(I really have to start checking email more than every other day.)

Thanks SOK.... I am feeling a little better today but still have the congestion.

I was taking the cold medicines, not just plain advil or tylenol.

The Tylenol cold multi symptom contains of course the Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Guaifenesin & Phenylephrine

The Advil Cold & Sinus contains the Ibuprofen and Psuedophedrine.

Maybe I am just sensitive to something in the Tylenol, i dont know ...but judging by the way I felt when I took it....THAT should be the one you have to sign a form and show your license to buy!!!!

There you go.
Phenylephrine.
Ending in "ine" is bad. Usually.
Think ephedrine.

Aren't summer colds the worst?
