UPDATE: Top Class Actions viewers started receiving payments of $5.20 from the Johnson & Johnson Infants’ Tylenol class action settlement in late January 2021. Congratulations to everyone who filed a claim and got PAID!
Johnson & Johnson has agreed to pay up to $6.3 million to resolve claims that its Infants’ Tylenol was deceptively packaged as being uniquely formulated for babies.
The settlement will benefit consumers who purchased Johnson & Johnson Infants’ Tylenol between Oct. 3, 2014 and Jan. 6, 2020.
The Infants’ Tylenol class action lawsuit claimed that the pain reliever was marketed to new parents by including text references to “infants” along with a picture of a mother holding her child. These representations allegedly caused consumers to believe that the medicine was specially created for infants.
However, the plaintiffs say these representations were false. In fact, Infants’ Tylenol allegedly contained liquid acetaminophen that was the same concentration found in Children’s Tylenol. The misrepresentations reportedly caused consumers to overpay for the medication based on their belief that the pain reliever was special or unique.
Johnson & Johnson, the manufacturer of Tylenol, has denied any wrongdoing. According to the company, Infants’ Tylenol is associated with safety features for infants such as a syringe for safe dosing practices. However, the company has agreed to pay into a $6.315 million settlement to resolve the claims against them.
The Infants’ Tylenol class action settlement will provide $2.15 to consumer for every 1 or 2 fl. oz. bottles purchased. If a Class Member can provide proof of purchase (receipts, etc.), they can collect an unlimited number of bottles. If a Class Member does not provide proof of purchase, they can collect up to seven bottles for a maximum payment of $15.05.
In order to benefit from the Infants’ Tylenol class action settlement, Class Members need to file a valid Claim Form by April 13, 2020. The deadline for exclusion and objection is also April 13, 2020. The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for May 11, 2020.

You people do realize you have to click the “file a claim” hyperlink and fill out your information to be included in the settlement, right? Just typing a comment saying “add me” isn’t going to get you any money and I don’t want y’all to miss out.
How do I file a claim? This is sad, I’ve been giving my baby boy this ever since he was 2 months – 6 months.
If you look at the information for the claim there is a section called “PROOF OF PURCHASE” right under that section is a blue box that says “CLICK HERE TO FILE YOUR CLAIM”. If you click on this blue box it will take you to a new page where you fill out your information for the claim then click on “SUBMIT”J
