Tylenol Introduces Glucosamine Supplement

FORT WASHINGTON, Pa.--The makers of Tylenol, McNeil Consumer Healthcare, a Johnson & Johnson company, will be rolling out a new glucosamine supplement, called Aflexa, in Florida. The product is being introduced in Florida because of the state's large population of retired people who are likely to have joint problems.

The introduction of a natural product is a major step for the company. In order to distinguish it from the other natural dietary supplements on the market, the company has added the words, "From the makers of Tylenol" to the label.
