Overview & Uses
When you suffer from arthritis pain, you want a pain reliever that works fast and lasts all day*. Also available in easy-to-swallow gelcaps, TYLENOL® Arthritis Pain has a bi-layer design—with one layer that dissolves quickly and another layer that releases medicine over time for up to 8 hours of relief.
*Up to 8 hours.
TYLENOL® Arthritis Pain won’t irritate your stomach the way that aspirin or even ibuprofen can. And it doesn't interfere with certain high blood pressure medicines the way Aleve® sometimes can. Doctors recommend TYLENOL® for osteoarthritis pain more than any other brand of pain reliever.

- minor pain of arthritis
