Is it harmful to take Tylenol after drinking alcohol?

Answer 1

Yes! The acetaminophen in Tylenol in combination with alcohol is toxic to your liver. This can kill you, and at the least poses a serious risk of doing permanent damage to your liver. NEVER take Tylenol or any other acetaminophen containing drug before, during, or after drinking alcohol. In fact.. you can drink a little bit of alcohol (no excess) with low doses of Tylenol (if you take it not regularly)... if you're not that old, your liver will be able to take it without any problem.

Answer 2

they should not be taken closely together because alcohol and the benadryl in Tylenol pm can react together to cause extreme drowsiness and my even cause some difficulty breathing. also if you drink frequently and take Tylenol freq. you may cause liver damage even faster than just one or the other. both Tylenol and alcohol can and do cause live damage if taken in excess.

Answer 3

Tylenol (acetaminophen) and alcohol together create a serious risk of severe liver damage, or of worsening damage that exists already. Even Tylenol alone can cause liver failure in sufficient quantity. Read the bottle.
