Is it ok to take norco with ibuprofen?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

In low doses, yes, but remember, Norco also contains Tylenol (in its generic form) and you don't want to mix Tylenol and ibuprofen (the active ingredient in Motrin/Advil, and some other non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs) at the same time. Also, you don't want to take too much Norco ALONE either, because Tylenol (in its generic form) is toxic to your liver in high doses.

Answer 3

It is NOT recommended to take norvasc and ibuprofen together. Concurrent use of a calcium channel blocker (norvasc) with a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory (ibuprofen) may result in an increased risk of gastrointestinal hemorrhage (bleeding in the intestine) and/or preventing the norvasc from working properly.

However, you should talk to your Doctor that prescribed the norvasc as he will be able to give an answer specific to your particular case.

Acetaminophen (also a pain killer) can be taken with norvasc safely as long as you are not allergic to acetaminophen if you are looking for an alternative.

Answer 4

Or course you can. Excedrin Back & Body is Tylenol and Aspirin......
