In Canada Costco sells a Kirkland brand of acetaminophen (generic tylenol). Recently they changed the formulation to an 'easy to swallow' version. The non-medicinal ingredients have changed from IBS friendly to IBS unfriendly.

The ingredients changed from
corn starch, povidone (dispersing and suspending agent) and stearic acid
to
corn starch, FD&C red #4, FD&C yellow #6, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, povidone, steraic acid, sucralose, talc and titanium oxide.

Be sure the check the ingredients label on everything you purchase to protect against unwanted surprises
