With the recent shortage of infant and children’s liquid and chewable tablets of acetaminophen (Tylenol®) and ibuprofen (Advil® or Motrin®), parents can
consider splitting and/or crushing adult tablets and mixing with a small amount of juice, apple sauce or pudding for use. Any extended–release products that are
used every 8 hours or more (e.g. Tylenol Arthritis®) should NOT be used in this way.
For more information, or if you have any questions, please contact your Family Doctor or Pharmacist. Please do not interpret this information as medical advice without prior consultation.
