Changes have been made to all single-ingredient liquid infant’s and children’s acetaminophen only and do not apply to solid, single-ingredient acetaminophen or multi-symptom treatments that contain acetaminophen. But why have they made these changes? To make it easier for parents and caregivers to use the medicines and to reduce medical errors including overdosing. They have also included a better safety feature on the new infant and children’s acetaminophen bottles. They are now equipped with flow restrictors so if a child were to accidentally get a hold of a bottle of the medicine a minimal amount will leave the bottle.
