Ibuprofen

Yes - your child can take Ibuprofen & an antihistamine together as long as you ask your physician for the proper dose for the antihistamine as they usually aren't recommended for children under 6.

Our daughter contracted the measles from her MMR (yup - that's right, she got the measles from her MMR vaccination) and we were told to give her Acetaminaphine or Ibuprofen & Benadryl to help with itch relief and pain. She was not 2 years old yet.

Recently she had RSV and again we were recommended to use a combo - this time Ibuprofen & Triaminic Nighttime.

Just check with your pediatrician or advice nurse first for dosage

Ibuprofen is a remarkably safe drug. One person in one hundred will have some gastric distress with it (stomach upset) but most people have no more gastric reaction to it than a sugar pill. If you exceed 2400 mg a day, however, you will start to retain fluid.

Tylenol should only be used as directed. Every situation is different so I would consult your doctor or visit the Tylenol website which will contain a lot of information. Their site states that before using Tylenol Infant for children uner 2 years of age you should consult your physician.

No, there is no aspirin in ibuprofen, but they are both NSAID meds (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).

You can access ibuprofen dosing charts for children online. Age is not the first determination for dosing. Most charts begin at 6 months of age, then proceed by weight. Checking different web sites, I did however find conflicting dose charts. When dealing with a child I tend to side with caution. The following is a chart I found to be most accurate; http://www.texaschildrens.org/Parents/TipsArticles/ArticleDisplay.aspx?aid=921

Once a child reaches the weight necessary to be given 200mg of ibuprofen, its a personal choice as to what form to give. A 200mg tablet/capsule/capsule/ etc may be given if tolerated.

Please remember, "more is not necessarily better!" Recommended doses are there for a reason. Taking more than recommended can quickly become toxic and do irreparable damage to your body.

Absolutely - Oxycodone and Tylenol is already marketed as a prescription drug. You know it as Percocet.

Percocet Dosages have 2 numbers, e.g., the dose I use is 10/325. The 10 indicates the amount of Oxycodone in the pill, and the 325 indicates the amount of Tylenol in the pill.

There are several doses, ranging from 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10mg of Oxycodone, with up to 750mg of Tylenol. Depending on how much is taken, a patient may opt to go with a lower Tylenol component. For example, I use between 120/150 per month, so I use the lowest dose of Tylenol available. I can always increase the amount by taking regular Tylenol if needed.

Conversely, the combination of Oxycodone and Aspirin is known as Percodan. It's not prescribed as often because Oxycodone is already hard on the stomach if you're not used to it. Adding the Aspirin component doesn't help, so for long term pain patients like me Percocet is much easier on the system.

Most doctors would say NO! It really depends on how much you use! Vicodin has tylenol in it and again, most doctors would tell you no more the 2000 mg a day of tylenol. If the vicodin you are taking is say 10/325, it means there is 325mg of tylenol in it. If 5/500, it means 500mg! Just do the math. Extra strenght Tylenol most of the time is 500mg!

Yes, you can generally take ibuprofen if you have glaucoma, but it's important to do so under the guidance of a healthcare provider. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that does not typically affect intraocular pressure, which is crucial for glaucoma management. However, individual health factors and medications can vary, so consulting with a doctor is recommended to ensure it’s safe for your specific situation.

Yes; but it may result in some side effects.

Yes you can. Don't worry about it.

I'm not a doctor, but my own doctor told me not to take ibuprofen or aspirin with Cymbalta as it can cause your blood to become thinner.
I wouldn't recommend mixing the two on a regular basis. Taking cymbalta with any NSAID can cause stomach bleeding. If it's used on occasion then it shouldn't be a problem. I used to take 600mg of ibuprofen every 6-8 hours every day with cymbalta and it caused my stomach to bleed. Also, the higher the dose, the more likely bleeding is to occur (i.e. 120mg of cymbalta daily with 800mg of ibuprofen QID).

No, buprenorphine is an opioid narcotic and a controlled substance that only a doctor can prescribe.

Ibuprofen is an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug), a completely different class of medications, and is available over the counter at most pharmacies. However, in high doses it can be toxic or even fatal.

Of course you can....

The answer is probably yes - dramamine is an antihistamine while Tylenol is generally acetominophen (an NSAID). However, if the Tylenol has any other active ingredient (check the back of the box), I would not mix the medications without consulting a pharmacist.

Short answer: yes, they can safely be combined in full, normal doses.

Advil Cold and Sinus is ibuprofen (NSAID analgesic) with pseudoephedrine/phenylephrine (nasal decongestant; the active ingredient in Sudafed), and Tylenol PM is acetaminophen (analgesic) with diphenhydramine (sleep aid; the active ingredient in Benadryl). Combining ibuprofen and acetaminophen is a little redundant, but perfectly safe. Both also have no significant reaction with either diphenhydramine or pseudoephedrine. Some people do report different reactions to both diphenhydramine and pseudoephedrine: some people are sedated by both, and some report excitability. Be sure to note your personal reactions for future reference.

Note that you'd probably save some money and take fewer unneccesary drugs by purchasing generic versions of each drug separately -- ibuprofen, acetaminophen, diphenhydramine, and pseudoephedrine. The first two are for pain (you can opt for the one you prefer), the third is for insomnia, and the fourth is for nasal congestion. That way, you can take only what you need.

Yes

FDA has approved Tylenol for under 6 months.

No good studies have been done to see if Ibuprofen/Motrin is safe. It should be and if kiddo is over 2 months, and has a fever with a source (know from where) then Ibuprofen should be fine if Tylenol isn't quite enough.

Under 2 months -- you need to be checked by an MD as may have a serious bacterial infection needing possible advanced ER/Hospital care.

No you will be fine, but you should only really take paracetamol from now on. They warn you not to take these things when you're pregnant but unless you had taken them every day for weeks it shouldn't have caused any damage.

Ritalin and Adderall will do essentially the same thing. The ibuprofen shouldn't do any harm, but I wouldn't recommend mixing Ritalin with Adderall. If you want a more intense response to the medication you should only use one of the two, maybe double your dosage if you want.

My husband and I do use these products together, but I would suggest you check with your local pharmacist , depending on the use of other prescribed meds you may take or conditions you may have. Feel better...

You should be very cautious about mixing medications. The best advice is to consult with your doctor before taking any medications, including over the counter medications, in combination.

Not generally.....Naproxen is a NSAID, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, and Hyrdocodone is a narcotic. You should be careful if taking too much of either, because Naproxen can be damaging to the stomach lining and Hydrocodone is paired with acetaminophen, which can be toxic to the liver in high dosages.

Do not take Tylenol or any other acetaminophen-containing drug when taking Hydrocodone.

You can take it, but it's best to space out the doses. If you take them at the same time, the abrasiveness to the stomach can be too much.

In most cases you will get heartburn of some sort--you CAN'T take any antacids. Also, don't lay down for about an hour, as the doxycycline will dissolve in your throat and you will have way more problems than just an infection or heartburn!
