ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
In making your investment decision, you should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus
supplement, in the accompanying prospectus or in any free writing prospectus filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC"). We have not, and the underwriters have not, authorized anyone to provide you with any other information. If you receive any different or
inconsistent information, you should not rely on it.
We and the underwriters are offering to sell the notes only in jurisdictions where sales are permitted.
You should not assume that the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying
prospectus is accurate as of any date other than its respective date.
This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes the terms of the offering of the notes. The second
part is the accompanying prospectus dated February 27, 2017, which we refer to as the "accompanying prospectus." The accompanying prospectus
contains a description of our debt securities and gives more general information, some of which may not apply to the notes. Both the prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus also incorporate by reference documents that are described under "Where You Can Find More
Information" in each of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. If information in this prospectus supplement is inconsistent
with any information in the accompanying prospectus, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.

S-i
Table of Contents
References in this prospectus supplement to "Johnson & Johnson," "we," "us" and "our" and all similar references are to Johnson & Johnson
and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires. However, in the "Description of the Notes" and related
summary sections of this prospectus supplement and the "Description of Debt Securities" section of the accompanying prospectus, references to
"we," "us" and "our" refer only to Johnson & Johnson, the parent company, and not to any of its subsidiaries.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management's assumptions, views, plans, objectives
and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "plans," "expects," "will,"
"anticipates," "estimates" and other words of similar meaning in conjunction with, among other things: discussions of future operations; expected
operating results and financial performance; impact of planned acquisitions and dispositions; the Company's strategy for growth; product
development; regulatory approvals; market position and expenditures.
Because forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding future events, they are subject to
uncertainties, risks and changes that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company's control. Investors should realize that if
underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company's actual results and financial
condition could vary materially from expectations and projections expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements. Investors are therefore
cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:
Risks Related to Product Development, Market Success and Competition

·
Challenges and uncertainties inherent in innovation and development of new and improved products and technologies on which the
Company's continued growth and success depend, including uncertainty of clinical outcomes, obtaining regulatory approvals, health plan
coverage and customer access, and initial and continued commercial success;

·
Challenges to the Company's ability to obtain and protect adequate patent and other intellectual property rights for new and existing products
and technologies in the U.S. and other important markets;
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/200406/000119312517065878/d353921d424b5.htm[3/1/2017 5:22:08 PM]

424B5

·
The impact of patent expirations, typically followed by the introduction of competing biosimilars and generics and resulting revenue and
market share losses;

·
Increasingly aggressive and frequent challenges to the Company's patents by competitors and others seeking to launch competing generic,
biosimilar or other products, potentially resulting in loss of market exclusivity and rapid decline in sales for the relevant product;

·
Competition in research and development of new and improved products, processes and technologies, which can result in product and process
obsolescence;

·
Competition to reach agreement with third parties for collaboration, licensing, development and marketing agreements for products and
technologies;

·
Competition on the basis of cost-effectiveness, product performance, technological advances and patents attained by competitors; and

·
Allegations that the Company's products infringe the patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties, which could adversely
affect the Company's ability to sell the products in question and require the payment of money damages and future royalties.

S-ii
Table of Contents
Risks Related to Product Liability, Litigation and Regulatory Activity

·
Product efficacy or safety concerns, whether or not based on scientific evidence, potentially resulting in product withdrawals, recalls,
regulatory action on the part of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (or international counterparts), declining sales and reputational
damage;

·
Impact of significant litigation or government action adverse to the Company, including product liability claims;

·
Increased scrutiny of the health care industry by government agencies and state attorneys general resulting in investigations and prosecutions,
which carry the risk of significant civil and criminal penalties, including, but not limited to, debarment from government business;

·
Failure to meet compliance obligations in the McNEIL-PPC, Inc. Consent Decree or the Corporate Integrity Agreements of the Johnson &
Johnson Pharmaceutical Affiliates, or any other compliance agreements with governments or government agencies, which could result in
significant sanctions;

·
Potential changes to applicable laws and regulations affecting U.S. and international operations, including relating to: approval of new
products; licensing and patent rights; sales and promotion of health care products; access to, and reimbursement and pricing for, health care
products and services; environmental protection and sourcing of raw materials;

·
Changes in tax laws and regulations, increasing audit scrutiny by tax authorities around the world and exposures to additional tax liabilities
potentially in excess of reserves; and

·
Issuance of new or revised accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Risks Related to the Company's Strategic Initiatives and Health Care Market Trends

·
Pricing pressures resulting from trends toward health care cost containment, including the continued consolidation among health care
providers, trends toward managed care and the shift toward governments increasingly becoming the primary payers of health care expenses;

·
Restricted spending patterns of individual, institutional and governmental purchasers of health care products and services due to economic
hardship and budgetary constraints;

·
Challenges to the Company's ability to realize its strategy for growth including through externally sourced innovations, such as development
collaborations, strategic acquisitions, licensing and marketing agreements, and the potential heightened costs of any such external
arrangements due to competitive pressures;

·
The potential that the expected strategic benefits and opportunities from any planned or completed acquisition or divestiture by the Company,
including the planned acquisition of Actelion Ltd., may not be realized or may take longer to realize than expected;

·
The potential that the expected benefits and opportunities related to the planned restructuring actions in the Medical Device segment may not
be realized or may take longer to realize than expected, including due to any required consultation procedures relating to restructuring of
workforce; and

trade restrictions and potential drug reimportation legislation;

The impact on international operations from financial instability in international economies, sovereign risk, possible imposition of
governmental controls and restrictive economic policies, and unstable international governments and legal systems;

·
Changes to global climate, extreme weather and natural disasters that could affect demand for the Company's products and services, cause
disruptions in manufacturing and distribution networks, alter the availability of goods and services within the supply chain, and affect the
overall design and integrity of the Company's products and operations; and

·
The impact of armed conflicts and terrorist attacks in the U.S. and other parts of the world including social and economic disruptions and
instability of financial and other markets.
Risks Related to Supply Chain and Operations

Difficulties and delays in manufacturing, internally or within the supply chain, that may lead to voluntary or involuntary business
interruptions or shutdowns, product shortages, withdrawals or suspensions of products from the market, and potential regulatory action;

Interruptions and breaches of the Company's information technology systems, and those of the Company's vendors, could result in
reputational, competitive, operational or other business harm as well as financial costs and regulatory action; and

·
Reliance on global supply chains and production and distribution processes that are complex and subject to increasing regulatory
requirements that may adversely affect sourcing and pricing of materials used in the Company's products.

the risks described above and in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017 to be a complete statement
of all potential risks and uncertainties. We do not undertake to publicly update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time,

RISK FACTORS
Before purchasing the notes, you should consider carefully the information described under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017. You should also carefully consider the information described under "Cautionary Note
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this prospectus supplement and the other information included in this prospectus supplement, the
accompanying prospectus and other information incorporated by reference herein and therein. Each of the risks described in these documents could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and could result in a partial or complete loss
of your investment. You should realize that the Company faces a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and many of which
are outside the Company's control, and if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company's business, results of operations or
financial condition could be adversely affected. See "Where You Can Find More Information."
Risks Relating to the Offering
The limited covenants in the indenture governing the notes and the terms of the notes will not provide protection against significant events
that could adversely impact your investment in the notes.
The indenture governing the notes does not:

·
require us to maintain any financial ratios or specific levels of net worth, revenues, income, cash flow or liquidity;

·
limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness;

·
restrict our subsidiaries' ability to issue securities or otherwise incur indebtedness that would be senior to our equity interests in our

subsidiaries;

·
restrict our ability to repurchase or prepay our securities; or

·
restrict our or our subsidiaries' ability to make investments or to repurchase or pay dividends or make other payments in respect of our

common stock or other securities ranking junior to the notes.
As a result of the foregoing, when evaluating the terms of the notes, you should be aware that the terms of the indenture and the notes will not
restrict our ability to engage in, or otherwise be a party to, a variety of corporate transactions, circumstances and events that could have an adverse
impact on your investment in the notes.
The notes will be unsecured and therefore will effectively be subordinated to any secured debt we may incur in the future.
The notes will not be secured by any of our assets or those of our subsidiaries. As a result, the notes will be effectively subordinated to any
secured debt we may incur to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. In any liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy or other similar
proceeding, the holders of our secured debt may assert rights against the secured assets in order to receive full payment of their debt before the
assets may be used to pay the holders of the notes.
Active trading markets for the notes may not develop.
The notes are new issues of securities with no established trading markets. We do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any securities
exchange. We cannot assure you trading markets for the notes will develop or of the ability of holders of the notes to sell their notes or of the
prices at which holders may be able to sell their notes. The underwriters have advised us that they currently intend to make a market in each series
of the notes. However, the underwriters are not obligated to do so, and any market-making with respect to the notes may be discontinued, in their
sole discretion, at any time without notice. If no active trading markets develop, you may be unable to resell the notes at any price or at their fair
market value.

USE OF PROCEEDS

outstanding common stock pursuant to our authorized share repurchase program, and the payment of outstanding commercial paper. As of
January 1, 2017, we had approximately $2.7 billion of commercial paper outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 0.5982% and a
weighted maturity of 28 days.
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges represents our historical ratio and is calculated on a total enterprise basis. The ratio is computed by
dividing the sum of earnings before provision for taxes on income and fixed charges by fixed charges. Fixed charges represent interest expense
(before interest is capitalized), amortization of debt discount and an appropriate interest factor on operating leases.

Interest on the Notes
The notes will bear interest from March 3, 2017, or from the most recent interest payment date for which interest has been paid or provided

Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on March 3 and September 3 of each year (each such date an "interest payment date" with
respect to the notes), beginning September 3, 2017, to the holders of the notes at the close of business on the applicable record date, which is the
February 17 or August 17 next preceding such interest payment date.
The 2022 notes will bear interest at the rate of 2.250% per annum. The 2027 notes will bear interest at the rate of 2.950% per annum. The
2037 notes will bear interest at the rate of 3.625% per annum. The 2047 notes will bear interest at the rate of 3.750% per annum. Interest on the

We may, at our option, redeem the 2022 notes, 2027 notes, 2037 notes and 2047 notes at any time prior to the applicable Par Call Date, either
in whole or in part, upon at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, prior notice given by mail to the registered address of each holder of the notes
to be redeemed. If we elect to redeem the notes, we will pay a redemption price equal to the greater of the following amounts, plus, in each case,
accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date:

· 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be redeemed on the redemption date; or

· the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments.
In determining the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, we will discount such payments to the redemption date on a semi-
annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 0.075%, in the
case of the 2022 notes, 0.100%, in the case of the 2027 notes and the 2037 notes, and 0.150%, in the case of the 2047 notes.

At any time on or after the applicable Par Call Date, we may redeem the 2022 notes, the 2027 notes, the 2037 notes and the 2047 notes, as the
case may be, in whole or in part, at our option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes to be redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.
The following terms are relevant to the determination of the redemption price.
"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity
(computed as of the third business day immediately preceding that redemption date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue. In determining this rate, we
will assume a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price
for such redemption date.
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual
or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in
accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of
such notes.
"Independent Investment Banker" means Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC or Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated or their respective successors as may be appointed from time to time by us; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to
be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a "primary treasury dealer"), we will substitute another primary treasury dealer.
"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the arithmetic average of four Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such redemption date after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if we obtain fewer than
four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the arithmetic average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date.
"Par Call Date" means (i) February 3, 2022 (one month prior to the maturity date of such notes), in the case of the 2022 notes, (ii)
December 3, 2026 (three months prior to the maturity date of such notes), in the case of the 2027 notes, (iii) September 3, 2036 (six months prior
to the maturity date of such notes), in the case of the 2037 notes, and (iv) September 3, 2046 (six months prior to the maturity date of such notes),
in the case of the 2047 notes.
"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the arithmetic
average, as determined by us, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal
amount) quoted in writing to us by such Reference Treasury Dealer as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such
redemption date.
"Reference Treasury Dealer" means Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC or Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated, and each of their respective successors and any other primary treasury dealers selected by us.
"Remaining Scheduled Payments" means, with respect to any note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal
thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related redemption date but for such redemption (assuming, in the case of the 2022 notes,
the 2027 notes, the 2037 notes and the 2047 notes, that such notes matured on the Par Call Date); provided, however, that, if such redemption date
is not an interest payment date with respect to such note, the amount of the next scheduled interest payment thereon will be reduced by the amount
of interest accrued thereon to such redemption date.
