Whatever I say about Tylenol arthritis pain medication, it is only my experience. Everyone's pain experience and relief is different. That said, I have chronic pain due to bulging discs in my lower back and bursitis flareups that affect my knees, hips, and shoulders. Throw in ruptured discs in my neck for good measure. I could be on vicodin; doctors would prescribe it, but that would effectively ruin my quality of life.

Instead, I choose to just take the top of the pain off and live with low to mid level pain. I could have chosen to take aspirin or motrin, but since I have to take something every day, these are hard on my stomach. I take Tylenol because it doesn't bother my stomach, and it actually works better for me than aspirin or motrin anyway. You have to follow the dosage instructions for Tylenol because taking too much can cause liver damage. In fact, I only take two tablets twice a day, not three times, for this reason. There are very bad days, though, when I will take the maximum allowed, and while I won't be pain free, the Tylenol will help get it down into tolerable levels.

I've taken Tylenol products for many years, from menstrual cramps to headaches to toothaches. I was really glad when the company came out with an arthritis strength; even this strength helps with other pains than arthritis even better, and helps me recover from a medical treatment that I receive once a month.

I've got to admit that I have tried the store-brand version of this, but it doesn't quite do what the Tylenol brand does. Also, an article on WEB MD recently said that the best and safest thing to take for arthritis was the ingredient in Tylenol--acetaminophen, either the extra-strength four times a day, or the arthritis-strength three times a day.

I have been using this for a while now and really think it helps me sleep. I tried the cheaper generic brand and could really tell a big difference. These last 8 hours and do a good job of holding off the pain enough to be able to sleep for most common mild to moderate pain. Be sure and note the warnings. Don't mix with alcohol or some other OTC medicines that might have additional tylenol in them like cold medicines. Make sure you take no more than the recommended dose, too much can damage the liver. It is quite safe in recommended dosages.
