True, there's the whole gastric irritation thing with NSAIDS, but just take with food, and you're good to go.
The reason Tylenol is a bunch of assholes is due to a recent (or not so recent) ad I saw marketing Tylenol for arthritis- calling it "Tylenol Arthritis." I was intrigued by this, seeing as how arthritis is a chronic inflammation, Tyelnol wouldn't do shit- I read the label, and there was no additional ingredient, except more Tylenol. And that's not going to do shit. Overdosing old people who don't read med labels is immoral and dangerous... These people are now at a risk for liver damage due to Tylenol's money hungry desires... Fucking Tylenol.
Or you could always smoke pot to help with pain ;)
If you have a headache, take caffiene- gives you cause to drink lots of Mountain Dew to help shrink those dilated blood vessels :)
