Each Multi-Symptom TYLENOL® Cold Severe Congestion Non-Drowsy Caplet contains acetaminophen 325 mg, dextromethorphan HBr 15 mg, guaifenesin 200 mg and pseudoephedrine HCl 30 mg.
Multi-Symptom TYLENOL® Cold Severe Congestion Non-Drowsy Caplets contains a clinically proven analgesic-antipyretic, decongestant, expectorant and cough suppressant. Acetaminophen produces analgesia by elevation of the pain threshold and antipyresis through action on the hypothalamic heat regulating center. Acetaminophen is equal to aspirin in analgesic and antipyretic effectiveness and is unlikely to produce many of the side effects associated with aspirin and aspirin-containing products. Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic amine which provides temporary relief of nasal congestion. Guaifenesin is an expectorant which helps loosen phlegm (mucus) and thin bronchial secretions to make coughs more productive. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant which provides temporary relief of coughs due to minor throat irritations that may occur with the common cold.
Multi-Symptom TYLENOL® Cold Severe Congestion Non-Drowsy Caplets: For the temporary relief of these cold symptoms: minor aches and pains, headaches, sore throat, nasal congestion, chest congestion, cough. For the reduction of fever.
