Can you take Sudafed non drowsy with ibuprofen?

You should not take Excedrin Migraine and Ibuprofen together, because Excedrin Migraine (and regular Excedrin Extra Strength) contains Aspirin, which is in the same NSAID category that Ibuprofen is. Taking them together can increase the risk of damage to the stomach lining, which can cause ulcers. It is not recommended to even take Ibuprofen with the low-dose aspirin used to prevent heart attack and stroke, because Ibuprofen can wipe out the protective quality you are taking the low-dose aspirin for. Excedrin Tension Headache contains the Acetaminophen and Caffeine, but not the Aspirin, and this would be safe to take with Ibuprofen.


Can taking 2 ibuprofen and 2 Excedrin make you sick?

are Excedrin an anti inflammatory drug?

A quick Google search reveals to me that the product Excedrin is actually a product that contains a combination of drugs: paracetamol, aspirin and caffeine. The aspirin component is an anti-inflammatory drug. However, at the dose that is contained in the Excedrin products (about 250mg), it's unlikely to have any substantial anti-inflammatory effects.


Can you take excedrin migraine 4 hours after taking ibuprofen?

The short answer is yes. Ibuprofen and Aspirin are both drugs that are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). If you took a standard dose of aspirin for pain (325-650mg) and were still experiencing some discomfort you can take so ibuprofen. I would recommend taking it with food to reduce stomach upset.

You should ask your doctor before taking Excedrin and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) together. Excedrin contains acetaminophen (Tylenol), aspirin, and caffeine. Aspirin and ibuprofen are in the same category of medication - non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs). Taking them at the same time may damage the stomach lining and create ulcers, as well as create bleeding issues.

Can you mix oxycodone with excedrin?

I have found that mixing the two increases the effects of the oxy. Not a good combination though if you are taking oxy apap due to the fact that two excedrin has 500mg of acetaminophen in it that is simply too much tylenol in that case I would use ibuprofen instead. Keep ur head on straight and stay safe.

Can you take excedrin migraine while taking Vyvanse?

DON'T DO IT! Technically you can, but Excedrin migrate has caffeine in it, enough that when I took it while on vyvanse, my heart was racing and I could not stop vommitting. If you can drink a bunch of coffee while on vyvanse, you probably won't have an issue with the Excedrin migrane, but be careful when taking too many stimulants at the same time.
