I recently e-mail the makers of Tylenol about the GF status of it. I
was pregnant and that is the only pain reliever that can be taken during
pregnancy, but I had heard it was not GF. I thought that since they are
the only one for pregnant women it would be nice if it was GF. This is
the response I got from them. I am confused though with the second to
last paragraph when it talks about the inactive ingredients. Is this
inactive ingredients in all other products besides the ones listed or
inactive ingredients in general. Can anyone help me--maybe I am just
reading too much into it, but would like some clarification please.
Thanks in advance.
