Tylenol Extra Strength Rapid Release Gels By willoughbyclan on Oct 01, 2007 - Updated Sep 18, 2011

Tylenol extra strength rapid release gels are a brand new product for Tylenol. Each gel contains 500mg of acetaminophen. The dosage remains the same as the regular extra strength Tylenol, however the new product is supposed to start to work much faster than regular Tylenol. Each gel is tri-colored with red, grey and light blue. Each gel is labeled as TY with the number 500 on each one. They are very easy to swallow which is no different than the regular Tylenol capsules. I have used a couple of bottles since Tylenol starting distributing them. I do not see a decrease in the amount of time the extra strength rapid release gel begins to lessen my pain in comparison to the regular extra strength Tylenol. In my opinion the Tylenol rapid release gels are more expensive and do not do a better job than the lesser expensive regular Tylenol.
