Acetaminophen (Tylenol)

yes-so be very careful when u take it. Do not take it to much

That is something you should speak with your DR or pharmacist about. Assuming you have no other conditions that Tylenol PM or Flexoril will interfere with the short answer is yes. I have done it and lived to tell.

Yes.

However you should NOT mix NSAIDS - Motrin (ibuprofen), Aleve (naproxen), etc. with aspirin. Tylenol can be safely mixed with many other drugs including aspirin & narcotics that do not already contain Tylenol (acetaminophen).

But ALWAYS check with your doctor or pharmacist first!

Type your answer here... You can take Tylenol which is out of date for a short time, if the Tylenol has been kept refrigerated, tightly sealed and very dry. Otherwise, it should be disposed of.

Tylenol (paracetamol) has a Wikipedia entry (reference 1). Under "Mechanism of Action," you will find the following:

"Paracetamol has long been suspected of having a similar mechanism of action to aspirin because of the similarity in structure. That is, it has been assumed that paracetamol acts by reducing production of prostaglandins, which are involved in the pain and fever processes, by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme.

However, there are important differences between the effects of aspirin and those of paracetamol. Prostaglandins participate in the inflammatory response, but paracetamol has no appreciable anti-inflammatory action. Furthermore, COX also produces thromboxanes, which aid in blood clotting - aspirin reduces blood clotting, but paracetamol does not. Finally, aspirin and the other NSAIDs commonly have detrimental effects on the stomach lining, where prostaglandins serve a protective role, but paracetamol is safe.

Indeed, while aspirin acts as an irreversible inhibitor of COX and directly blocks the enzyme's active site, paracetamol indirectly blocks COX, and that this blockade is ineffective in the presence of peroxides.[2] This might explain why paracetamol is effective in the central nervous system and in endothelial cells but not in platelets and immune cells which have high levels of peroxides.

In 2002 it was reported that paracetamol selectively blocks a variant of the COX enzyme that was different from the then known variants COX-1 and COX-2.[3] This enzyme, which is only expressed in the brain and the spinal cord, is now referred to as COX-3. Its exact mechanism of action is still poorly understood, but future research may provide further insight into how it works.

A single study has shown that administration of paracetamol increases the bioavailability of serotonin (5-HT) in rats,[4] but the mechanism is unknown and untested in humans."

In other words, it probably works by blocking a COX (cyclooxygenase) enzyme, similar to the action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs), like "Aleve."

It depends. Some forms of tramadol already have acetaminophen in them. It is important that you check to be sure your prescription does not already have acetaminophen in it. If your prescription for tramadol is only tramadol, and you are absolutely certain there is no acetaminophen in it, then yes, they work well together. However if you are in doubt or are not absolutely sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.

Old answer: Yes, if your liver is healthy enough.

I would have to say yes, I have taken it before my surgery and had no issues. You may have to check with your Dr though if you are instructed not to take anything that thins your blood. Tramadol is not a blood thinner it is an opiate antagonist which means in simple terms is like an opiate but without giving you much of a high...in simple terms it fills in the gaps of what an opiate would do in the brain in some ways. Its a pain killer for mild to moderate pain as far as I am aware. It is better to check with your Dr though for all matters and depending on the surgery my advice might not be right for you?

No, acetaminophen (Tylenol) has pain relieving and fever reducing (antipyretic) properties, not anti-inflammatory properties. Over the counter anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve), and aspirin.

Celebrex and Tylenol are in different classes of pain medication, and when you take them both together, they work much better than either one alone. It is a case of 1 + 1 = 3 in terms of the effectiveness of the medication, that is, one Celebrex and one Tylenol are more powerful in relieving pain than two Celebrex alone or two Tylenol alone. The medical term for this is "synergistic." I got this from "Dr. Nelson's Post Operative Instruction Page". You can check it out by searching Google for it.

Both can be used to treat the symptomatic pain, howeverthey are for pain alone and will not solve whatever is causingthe sore throat. One reason for asore throat is that post-nasal drip or the drainage of mucus down your throat, which is best taken care of by gargling with warm salt water. If your lymph nodes feel inflamed odds are you're fighting an infection and should treat it with acetaminophen, warm tea, and a liquid diet to stay hydrated.

Aspirin is a pain reliever with anti-inflammatory effects.

Even at low doses, it reduces the tendency of the blood to clot, and is therefore useful to prevent heart attacks and strokes. The anti-clotting effect means aspirin is best avoided in injuries that tend to bleed. Its anti-inflammatory effects make it useful for tendonitis.

Aspirin can irritate the stomach. The pills should be taken with food (if possible) to prevent stomach upset. Aspirin should be avoided by persons with active ulcers, and by those on anticoagulants (blood thinners). Aspirin decreases the tendency of the blood to clot for many days after a single dose.

it only takes about 50 tylenols to kill yourself, but only 15 to overdose, but it cant kill you. Also depends on gender, age, wt, etc

These two drugs are similar, but NOT the same. Hydrocodone is the generic name for Vicodin, Norco, Lortab and about 30 others. It is a narcotic analgesic, and not quite as strong as Oxycodone. It's also SLIGHTLY less regulated i.e. it can be CALLED IN to a pharmacy by a physician. It can be habit forming. Vicodin and the rest are a combo of hydrocodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol).

Oxycodone is also a narcotic analgesic, and also can be habit-forming. It can also be a combo of acetaminophen and oxycodone (generic) such as Percocet, Tylox, Roxilox. It is SLIGHTLY more regulated i.e. it CANNOT be called in to a pharmacy: you have to have a physical written prescription from a physician. Because of its potential for abuse and dependence, doctors tend to prescribe Vicodin rather than Percocet. Oxycodone can be prescribed as a single drug preparation ( minus the acetaminophen.)

Tylenol (Acetaminophen), is an commonly used over-the-counter and prescription pain reliever (analgesic). It is also used as a fever reducer in Children and Adults.

Tylenol should not be taken If you have a history of Kidney disease or Cirrhosis of the liver. As this may cause severe complications.

The brand name Tylenol was first introduced by McNeil Laboratories in 1955, but the active ingredient, paracetamol (now commonly known as acetaminophen), has been around since the late 1800s. Harmon Northrop Morse has been credited with first synthesizing paracetamol.

Yes. According to my drug reference books, it is perfectly safe to take these two meds together.

are you sure zoloft is good, because there are many television commercials saying that if you take zoloft, porzac e.t.c and you had serious medical issues that you can sue the company for it. Anyways i think you should ask your doctor

I think you can take them together provided that its in appropriate doses and you're not allergic to either of them. There is a medication called Tylenol PM that combines both paracetamol and diphenhydramine (benadryl) together. Hope this helps.

If you take to much Tylenol your body will reject it and if you don't seek medical attention soon enough you might die.

The moment you known you have consumed acetaminophen in excess it is very important that you seek emergency medical attention. Some of the symptoms of the overdose of this medication is tremors (uncontrolled shaking); increased heart rate; sweating; confusion or restless feeling; nausea, stomach pain

, fever, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-coloured stools, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes); or seizure (convulsions).

Quote from the Related Link: "Dogs, particularly small dogs, can also experience significant tissue damage from as little as two regular strength acetaminophen tablets. Signs of distress can appear quickly, especially if the dose is repeated, including salivation, vomiting, weakness, and abdominal pain." It is not recommended to give any animal a medicine that is for humans without a veterinarian prescribing it for the animal.

It is an opiate, and most people could get some of the recreational side effects of an opioid painkiller (euphoria, sedation etc.) from a dose of hydrocodone. It is not recommended as there is high potential for abuse as well as the APAP being especially high in Vicodin (hydrocodone apap).

That depends on the size of the dog, her healthy history, and how many milligrams of acetaminophen she ate. Call your Vet, the ASPCA Poison Control hotline, or your local Emergency Veterinary Hospital to determine whether she needs treatment. Tylenol in a large enough dose can kill your dog.

If it has been prescribed to you and you really do need it. Also, don't take more than what is necessary.
