Can you take Tylenol and minocycline?

Yes. Midol, Aleve, or Ibuprofen, can be taken with Minocycline. I just started taking Minocycline and worried about the same thing. I absolutely have to take a pain reliever, during my menstrual cycles. My doctor and pharmacists both said it was fine. Just try to space the time out somewhat. So, not to take everything at the exact same time. It's best the Minocycline gets absorbed into your system alone. Hope, this helps :-D
