The hypothesis is that it is based on the idea of depression being caused by a chronic inflammatory process. I seem to remember something in relation to paracetamol (acetaminophen) and depression too and obviously the mechanisms would be similar.
Tylenol is functional at inhibiting cox-2 in the CNS so it makes sense that it may help we're depression and inflammation linked.
