Midol contains acetaminophen, a diuretic, and antihistamine. Acetaminophen is a pain reliever and inflammation reducer like Ibuprophen. Contact a doctor before using Midol and Ibuprophen at the same time.

Can you combine Vicodin and acetaminophen?

Most over-the-counter cough syrup medications have ibuprophen, or a similar drug, in them already as an inflamation reducer and pain relief. Look at the directions that came with your cough medicine, as a list of all included medications should be listed. If the medication does not contain ibuprophen, and there are no warnings against taking the ibuprophen, then it should be ok to take the recommended dose of both. For a more complete answer, and before taking most medications, see you doctor.


What is alittle stronger then Tylenol 3?

In my opinion, the prescription opiate ladder is - 1 - Tylenol 3 (Codine/Acetaminophen) 2 - Vicodin (5mg Hydrocodone-325/500mg Acetaminophen ) 3 - Vicodin (7.5mg Hydro - 500/750 Ace.) 4 - Vicodin/Norco (10mg Hydro - 325 Ace) 5 - Percoset - (5mg Oxycodone - 500 Ace) Of course Percoset comes in multiple sizes... like vicodin. Then you have your straight opiates, Morphine/Oxycontin etc that come in sizes simmilar to the active opiate in these, just without the Acetaminophen/Asprin/Ibuprophen that come with.


What type of drug relieves pain without causing loss of consciousness?

That depends on how sensitive you are. Typically, an NSAID is a good choice: aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen and naproxen are pretty standard medications. If you've never taken them before, then you should take the minimum dosage and see how it affects you. If you are sensitive to medications or have allergies, you should probably consult your doctor.

Is it ok to take norco with ibuprofen?

You should split them apart by about 3 hours. Both of these are pain medications, and are harsh on your stomach. Taking that much together would be very likely to give you severe heartburn and possibly nausea.Yes you can. Ibuprophen, being an NSAID, is great for imflamation pain. Lortab, of course is a narcotic mix of Hydrocodone and "Tylenol". I recomend taking 400mg to 800mg of Ibuprophen ALTERNATING with the Lortab. In other words take the Lortab every six hours and in between doses of the Lortab take the Ibuprophen. This will keep stomach irritation down. The other possibility is to ask your Doctor to prescribe Vicoprophen, which is a pill that has Hydocodone and Ibuprophen (instead of Tylenol) in it. It has 200mg of Ibuprophen so it may require you to take another advil or two with it to boost the ibuprophen level.
