The Painkiller that Became a Killer: The Tylenol Crisis

In 1982, when people reached for a pill bottle, they expected relief, not a game of Russian roulette. But that's precisely what they got. Enter Tylenol, the innocent-looking painkiller, which would soon harbor a deadly secret. Tylenol wasn't just a random player in the world of pain relief; it was THE player. Accounting for a whopping 35% of the over-the-counter painkiller market in the US, it's safe to say that Tylenol had more fans than most rock bands at that time. Small pill, big relief. While aspirin was off somewhere, potentially causing stomach ulcers, and ibuprofen was keeping a tab of your kidney functions, Tylenol played it cool. The nice guy in the toxic world of pain relief.
