Description
IndicationsÂ
Tylenol Children Suspension Grape is a liquid medication specifically formulated for children ages 2 to 11 years. The grape-flavored suspension is designed to be easy for children to take and is commonly used to temporarily reduce fever and relieve minor aches and pains associated with conditions such as the common cold, flu, headache, sore throat, and toothache.Â
Tylenol Children Suspension Grape contains the active ingredient acetaminophen, which is a pain reliever and fever reducer.
