Can you take vicodin and uti pain reliever together?

When you say "UTI pain reliever" do you mean something like Pyridium or AZO Standard? If so, then yes, you can take vicodin with those medicines. If you mean something else, then you do not want to take two pain medications together. Pyridium and AZO are phazopyridine, which is a urinary agent and not a true pain reliever. They only act on the urinary system.
