Steven;

In Canada, Tylenol which is manufacted by McNeil Pharmaceutical is listed
as being gluten-free (ref: CPS).

You may want to talk to a company representative to ensure that the Tylenol
(or any drug) you have purchased is gluten-free (i.e. it contains no traces
of gliadin, etc.). To better ensure that you receive the answer you need as
to gluten-status, you will need to feel comfortable that the person you are
talking to is familiar with what gluten-free actually means, you will need
to provide the lot or batch number, DIN (drug identification number), etc.

The toll-free number for McNeil in Canada is 1-800-567-5667. Sorry, I don't
know a number for you to call in the US but perhaps someone else  can
provide this information for you.

Regards, Marilyn
