A member asked:
Should i give tylenol (acetaminophen) to my 2 months old baby before immunization shots or after o reduce the discomfort ? which is preferred ?

Not helpful: There is no significant evidence that indicates pre-medicating with pain relievers is beneficial when given prior to the injections. However, Tylenol (acetaminophen) in weight appropriate doses should not be harmful.
