How many five year olds have had an accident while operating a forklift under the influence of Tylenol here lately?

The makers dont want the youngsters to drop their Tonka Toys on their toes.

Good question. I think they print out the same labels for each type of Tylenol and only change the front part and the dosage. They probably don't think about or don't bother to change the don't use heavy machinery part of the label. Either that or the yassume that some adults might be using it too.

Hey, like operating Tonka Equipment or something. I mean can you imagine the danger of playing with "Transformers" toys while on Children's Tylenol? Nope, neither can I. But I'll try it sometime.

It is a generic label. I agree, though, Tylenol really needs to pull that off of children's Tylenol. Their website allows you to email them a question. Might want to do that, point that out to them.

Because some adults find it easier to take liquid medications than pills, and the most common liquid medications are designed for children. Also, if the medication contains alcohol or any substance that could cause drowsiness, they have to put the warning on there.

Maybe some grown men can't find anything else in their house to take. Or maybe they just like swallowing more pills. And for the record- my 5 yr old is an excellent driver!

Because adults consume Children's Tylenol for any number of reasons' their weight, their belief that they need a milder dosage, etc.

Maybe the makers are trying to send a message about the consequences of useing their medication.....on the other hand would you prefer they NOT tell you about any possible side effects......???????
I simply hope you don't get "forked" while asking such inaneities!!!
