I can't believe I'm spending time providing a serious answer to this nonsense question, but here goes.

Yes. Obviously yes. At least assuming the bullet survived out of the gun.

Tylenol is a pain killer, but it's not a magic videogame pill. Its effects are nowhere near strong enough to overcome the pain of being shot. And even if they were, it still takes time to be absorbed.

Your best hope is that the Tylenol pill is too fragile and it breaks up within the gun, leaving a large number of small, light particles of Tylenol flying at you, which will get decelerated much more quickly by air resistance than would a single solid pill.
