Except we don't have Tylenol in most countries where it's called paracetamol.
We have Panadol, Panamax, Calpol, Herron and Hedanol.
If it wasn't for ER, Scrubs, Greys Anatomy and a bunch of other American media, I'd have no idea that Tylenol and acetaminophen are the same thing as Panadol and paracetamol.
Standard Tylenol and standard Panadol are different dosages too. Regular strength Tylenol is 325mg, standard Panadol (and every other paracetamol brand I've seen for adults) is 500mg, which is the "extra strength" of Tylenol.
We have enough liver problems in the US without pushing more acetaminophen/paracetamol on people. ๐
