McNeil new alcohol warnings debuting for certain adult Tylenol products, Motrin IB.

TYLENOL REVISED ALCOHOL WARNING CITING OVERDOSE RISK will be on packages beginning in late July, McNeil Consumer Products announced July 8. As part of a repackaging effort that includes redesigned front graphics and an easier-to-read format, the company has changed its alcohol warning to incorporate a reference to liver damage, as proposed by FDA in November ("The Tan Sheet" Nov. 17, 1997, p. 1). However, unlike the agency's proposed warning, McNeil's statements link the possible organ damage to taking more than the recommended dose of Tylenol.
