No, we just avoid processed sugars.


You are nuts.

Here are the ingredients for the cherry flavor of the most popular brand:

anhydrous citric acid, FD&C red no. 40, flavors, glycerin, high fructose corn syrup, microcrystalline cellulose and carboxymethylcellulose sodium, purified water, sodium benzoate, sorbitol solution, sucralose, xanthan gum

Me. Too. Educate yourself about sugars. Refined sugars vs aspartame vs hi fructose corn syrup vs sugar metabolism when eating a piece of fruit. Studies not funded by the sugar industry. I cannot find any syrup free acetaminophen after surgery either. There are 3 grams of sugar in every tsp. 48 grams in a soda or juice and you are consuming 16 tsp sugar.

Rudest replies on here. How embarrassing.
I was just researching this for my diabetic. I have not found sugar free acetaminophen but they do sell sugar free ibuprofen. Ibuprofen is for pain and inflammation. Acetaminophen for pain. I’m not partial to ibuprofen with COVID-19 in the mix.

I don’t know about sugar free and don’t want to get into that debate anyway, but if your DC has trouble with pills they do make chewable acetaminophen for children. I buy it at Target.

Name brand children's Tylenol contains HFCS.

https://www.tylenol.com/products/childrens-tylenol-oral-suspension#ingredients

As does CVS brand.

I assume the other generic versions do too.


In any event, who cares. A little corn syrup isn’t going hurt your kid


PP here. My kids have taken some corn syrup with their medicine, I'm not concerned about it. But I don't like false statements.

Children's liquid acetiminophen and ibuprofen contain sugar, unless you get the sugar-free versions with sucralose (splenda) or aspartame.

Medicine is made by a process. But you will take that... don’t be such an idiot.

My colleague just called me to tell me about this thread, because we can't believe how stupid this is.
