You really should consult a doctor about medication for your toddler and not the internet...there are few people on here with and MD and even if they do, they still need to see the child to accuratly give an answer. Do not use Tylenol with any other products containing acetaminophen. Tylenol is acetaminophen and can cause liver damage if you exceed recommended daily limits. Acetaminophen is in countless OTC products(e.g.) cold syrups, cold aids, prescription pain relievers. Do not OD on acetaminophen;read OTC labels.

No it should not be given to children in combination. TYLENOL (ACETAMINOPHEN) (NSAID) may interact with a variety of other medicines. ADVIL (ibuprofen) (NSAID) Both of the medication are classified: (NSAID;s) = Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Acetaminophen & Ibuprofen may interact with a variety of other medicines and should not be used in children OR adults in conjunction. When this happens, the effects of one or both of the drugs may change or the risk of side effects may be greater.

It is not safe to give a toddler either of these medications as they can potentially be very harmful to the child. If you need pain relief for your toddler, contact your doctor for advice. If the toddler has a fever, visit your local pharmacy and speak to the pharmacist about appropriate medication.

How long after taking Tylenol should you wait before taking Darvocet?

Since Darvocet has Tylenol in it, you cannot take them within 4 hours of each other. Try alternating Darvocet with ibuprofen - take the ibuprofen every 6 to 8 hours, and if you need Darvocet, take it at least 3 hours after the ibuprofen. That way, you won't get too much Tylenol, but it will relieve your pain better.
