I take ibuprofen exclusively. Any headache or pain strong enough I take 3 of the blue Advil Liqui-Gels. Problem solved.
I don't feel anything else except relief.
You people that feel things from ibuprofen or acetaminophen are weirdos. I can't imagine you guys taking a hit of good acid. If Tylenol fucks you up, you'd be up shits creek on a hit of solid LSD.

I’m going to double resurrect this zombie thread. A google search of “I can feel when I’ve taken Tylenol” lead me here. I’m glad there are two others out there. I would describe the feeling as similar to when you “taste” something when breathing in or out through your nose (using olfactory senses). It’s like my brain can taste the Tylenol. It’s a weird feeling. It’s kind of a heady feel, and is exclusively associated with Tylenol or acetaminophen in general for me. I typically take ibuprofen and also had to switch due to pregnancy. I’ve definitely had the feeling my whole life when taking it.

I find pain killers or cold suppressants etc don't do much for me. They help a tad but I have to take quite a lot. Not sure if it has to do with being ginger, I know for things like anesthetic we need more dosage.
Generally I don't take Tylenol or Advil or any of those drugs all that often. People who do take it often should really see a doctor about whatever it is they are taking it for, as it's not good to take that stuff a lot.

That's definitely strange.
As I replied earlier, I definitely feel the general 'numbness' I can FEEL around my body with painkillers.

Ever go to the hospital and they pump that saline cleaner stuff in the hose that they stick in your arm and you can smell and taste it in an instant?
I realize that this thread is pretty old. But i just did a search on why tylenol makes me feel weird. And this came up. Its almost like a chemical feeling not pleasant at all. And its not placebo. I have taken medicines unaware that acetaminophen was an active ingredient and felt it about 30 minutes later. And its aleays been this way.
I get the same feeling as that person who described taking Tylenol and ‘tasting’ it in their brain.
Found my way here because I was googling that I can feel strawberries in my brain after I eat them, but for some strange reason, no one else has made a forum post for that. Ha!
So then I searched Tylenol, because I get a similar taste feeling with that as I do strawberries.
I’ve been telling doctors this since I was a teenager, welcoming What The F*%# looks, as I would describe it as the taste I’d get when they put that tongue depressor stick in your mouth, except in the back lower part of my brain. I taste the tongue depressor in the back of my brain when I take Tylenol.
Strangely enough, I get a similar feeling with strawberries, though not exactly the same. Strawberries feel more like the coolness of mint on both sides of my brain, traveling to the top, and then almost like the front part of my brain woke up, suddenly alert. But not me, the front part of my brain. That guy.
Ha, I feel like someone trippin on acid, telling them how the guitar solo from Stairway to Heaven tastes just like the color Z.
I have an extreme sensitivity to all medications. I took it excedrin twice, and had hallucinations in the middle of the night, twice, thinking I was awake, but seeing my dreams lucid in front of me.
and they were both horribly violent.
Can’t take vicodin or codeine, it actually gives me the same affect with the hallucinations, but coupled with extreme dizziness and vomiting. My doctors tell me I am not allergic to these medicines, I only have an extreme sensitivity.
Too bad, because I’ve had a 14 hour surgery in the past and could only meditate afterwards in the hospital bed to get pain relief. And Aleve. Which does jack sh*%.
Whatever, I don’t know why am writing this much.
Maybe this is our superpower, and we’ll be the only ones immune when the zombie apocalypse comes around.
Or maybe there’s a tongue in my brain and an eyeball in there too, and they both like to eat Tylenol and strawberries!

Blood pressure is a tricky thing to diagnose!
I know of people who can adjust their own blood pressure by just thinking about it!
That's because if you use relaxation techniques for the moment they can lower your blood pressure!
But as my doctor told me -- when it comes to blood pressure if your waking blood pressure is to loew it can cause all kinds of problems that you do not want to happen!
There are different kinds of blood pressure medicines that are designed to do different things -- Here is a link with some very good information!= -- https://www.heart.org/en/health-top...-pressure/types-of-blood-pressure-medications
I take 3 different kinds of blood pressure medicines -- Ace inhibitor and combination Alpha and Beta blocker and a blood vessel dialator. Of course I see approx. 8 different specialist with my nephrologist taking the lead as to what meds I can take based on my kidney function!
Good luck to you!!

Same, I hate taking stuff like Tylenol. Not bad, just weird. It's a hard feeling to explain, like when you pull a muscle you didn't even know you had...there's some kind of weird sense that your body has that you're not aware of until you take something like Tylenol, if you're sensitive to it. I just know it makes me feel weird in a unique way & I don't like that feeling at all...funny that other people identify with it! It's extremely hard to describe in words.
It's crazy to find this thread and to resurrect it once more, but add me to the list for that weird Tylenol feeling. I've had it forever and I don't get it with any other medications either. I'm glad I'm not alone! I usually avoid Tylenol, but today I had nothing else to take for a headache and here is the feeling again! I'm glad I'm not crazy/the only one!

Y'all who get the weird feelings:
Enlist some help to conduct some single and/or double blind testing of your own. Take something under false pretenses (labeled tylenol but is ibuprofen, or vice versa). Test your theories with some time and take notes.
I haven't taken normal Tylenol in ages. As I got older I felt it did nothing for me, and I can't say that I ever felt anything odd about it. I used to feel a reduction in whatever pain was bothering me but that's it.
I was just reading up on acetaminophen (paracetamol) to see if there has been more revealing research, as for the longest while its direct methods of action haven't been understood. I see there has been some research revealing modulation of the endocannabinoid system. Perhaps that pathway is the source of "odd feelings." The endocannabinoid system is largely implicated in overall pain self-treatment pathways, in other words the body's own attempts to mask the pain.
We clearly understand the activity that specific cannabinoids undertake in the body, but there is likely quite the assortment of endogenous activity that produces results unlike the drug pathways.
Hell, I'd kind of like to start such a study. Those who have acknowledged a potential feeling from tylenol, what have your experiences been, if any, with cannabis? Any specific sensitivities/ill-feelings? Obviously right now doesn't count because your recollections are now tainted by the immediate connection made in the question, but that'd be crucial to helping evolve our overall understand of the endocannabinoid system. There's a dearth of known medical exploitation of chemical pathways that module the system. It'd be interesting to know if there is now stronger research ongoing between Tylenol and scientists eyeing this research (or really any pharma company and/or university research). I mean duh I know that such research is ongoing, in a general sense. Specifics that are being investigated, that's what tickles my fancy. I'm presently convinced that some serious breakthroughs will occur as the overall legal cannabis markets mature because research can significantly take advantage of modern understanding of terpenes and flavonoids - it's becoming clear that the differing effects of most strains lean more heavily on the different concentrations of those things that aren't even cannabinoids as opposed to strict species/sub-species it is, whether it's a hybrid, or the concentration of the specific cannabinoids like THC and CBD.
Ultimately, if it's the endocannabinoid system that's playing a role, I'd want to know whether this may be a difference in sensitivity to this specific process or a metabolite during the endocannabinoid system response. Perhaps if you are more sensitive to this pathway that maybe marijuana isn't even enjoyable?
I'm ecstatic for the ongoing/upcoming research, I'd wager that a major pain management breakthrough will probably come from a pharma-developed cannabinoid or enhanced modulator of the endocannabinoid system.

Count me in as one of the weirdos that hit Google and found this thread. Feeling best described for me at least as feeling like coming down with a cold. Was for attached acetaminophen in another medicine.

OK so this is many years later, but I am so happy to hear other folks have experienced this (!)
I still experience it.
