Yes, taking Tylenol (acetaminophen) along with an antihistamine (such as cetirizine [Zyrtec], loratadine [Claritin], or diphenhydramine [Benadryl]) is generally safe.
Common combinations: Acetaminophen and diphenhydramine, a sedative antihistamine, are actually combined to make Tylenol PM.
In order to treat several symptoms at once, many cold and flu drugs mix antihistamines and painkillers.
A few things to bear in mind are:
Drowsiness: A number of antihistamines, particularly those that are first-generation, such as diphenhydramine, might make you feel extremely sleepy. It won't become worse if you take them with Tylenol, but be mindful if you need to be alert or are driving.
Double dosing: If you're taking a combined medicine, be sure you're not inadvertently taking two different substances (for example, don't take Tylenol PM and ordinary Tylenol).

Can you take Tylenol with perocet?
Both of these medicines can be taken together since they are a different medicine BUT....the Tylonol is more of a concern. You do not want to exceed 1000 mg in a 6 hour period. Tylonol 3 and 4 have 300 mg of Tylonol while percocet has 350 Total amount of tylonol conumption would only be 650 mg the same as an extra stength tylonol. So if you take one Tylonol 3 or 4 and one Percocet this would be all right. I would check with a doctor before taking this much medicine unless you are use to it.There are people who are on Oxycontin, which contains oxycodone (the same as Percocet) who take tylonol 3 or 4 as a break through pain. These people also will take these medicines together if authorized by their doctor to do so.
