Can endocet and ibuprofen be taken together?

Answer 1

Yes. Endocet does contain acetominophen, however, so I wouldn't take any additional Tylenol or any pain reliever that contains acetaminophen, unless you have no liver problems and are monitoring how much Tylenol you are getting in a day. For an adult with no liver problems, the maximum is 4g. So if your endocet tablets contain 500mg each for example, and you are taking 8 a day, then don't take anymore Tylenol. If you are only taking 4 a day, then you could potentially take up to 4 Tylenol a day. ibuprofen is fine to take with both.

Answer 2

Hydrocodone and endocet are both opioid analgesics. Thus, taking both of these medications together would be very similar to simply taking more of either drug. Although there is not expected to be any other type of adverse drug interaction, taking these drugs together can increase the side effects and risk of overdose because of the additive effects. Consequently, these medications should be taken separately unless directed by a doctor.
