    The chemical was discovered in the 19th century. Tylenol is a US thing, the common name in Europe is Panadol.

        Yes, so is Tylenol. I was saying the J&J didn’t discover paracetamol, they were just the first to market it in the US (or, more likely, bought the company that did).

        Same with Europe, Panadol, and GSK.
