Reference number: SR #1-29191056 -----Original Message----- Sent: 04/14/2007 20:56:09 Subject: Question/Comment Consumer stated: I heard news that all the Tylenol products have pork or beef derivitives. For religious reason I am not allowed to eat pork or beef. Since Tylenol is the pain reliever I use the most I was wondering if it was possible to tell me if there are any pork or beef derivitives in any of the Tylenol products. http://www.muslimconsumergroup.com/Services.do?menu=Services&eventAction=feedback&subEventAction=feedbackdetail&feedbackId=421 |

ReplyDeleteYour post seems to have cut off and I can't read most of the words...
wa alaikum as salam
ReplyDeletesorry bout that... should be ok now..
as mentioned at the end.. its an older post / email and the information should be requested again..
It should be quite easy .. just send the same email again to the same address or find their email address from their contact us page from their website.. specially if they have a country specific email for the country you reside in.
Assalamualaikum
ReplyDeleteThank you. I didn't notice the part that said it was older but I did, just yesterday, email them to find out for certain because I told my fiance and he wants me to send him written confirmation of if it is true or not. I can let you know when they reply if you need to update or not. :)
jazak-allah khair.
ReplyDeleteyes any updates would be appreciated and beneficial to all readers..
Actually, I don't think we even need to wait. If you go to their website and click on products and check each one, there is an FAQ on the side of each and one of the questions is, is it kosher? And they say no.
ReplyDeleteHere is one as an example:

Q: Are all TYLENOL* products considered kosher?
A: All TYLENOL* products are NOT kosher. Please contact your Rabbi or Spiritual advisor for his or her recommendations.
I know Kosher is more of a Jewish thing but from what I understand, if something isn't Kosher, it isn't halal, right?
