Tylenol is acetaminophen, and Motrin is an ibuprofen. They can be taken together, I am a nurse and have done it many times myself, and for my patients. Just make sure you are giving the appropriate doses of both medications, and then yes, they can be given at the same time.

Motrin is Ibuprofen, so you can take them together, but don't exceed 800mg combined every 6-8 hours. It should be easier to take one or the other. If pain management is difficult to achieve with just ibuprofen, alternate with Acetaminophen (Tylenol). e.g., take Motrin when you wake up at 8, then Tylenol at 12, then more Motrin at 4 and another dose of Tylenol at 8. Be sure not to take more than 1000mg of Tylenol in a dose

Can you give Advil and then Tylenol later on?

It depends on the last time you gave it. If it was about four hours ago, you can if you like. But if it hasn't been that long, I wouldn't.


What if an 8yr old yorkie eat several 800 ibuprofen?

I just took my 1 1/2 y.o Yorkie to the emergency vet because he may have possibly ate an 800mg ibuprofen. The poison control said, even just LICKiNG a pill, (not even eating one) can cause kidney failure and ulcers resulting in death. So $1700 later, he should be ok


Can you take Tylenol and Midol together?

Yes, but only if the Midol product that you've chosen does not have ibuprofen in it. There are several formulations of Midol, and I know at least one of them has it in it! Read the back of the packaging...if it says ibuprofen, don't take extra ibuprofen with it. If it says acetaminophen (as well as other ingredients that are NOT ibuprofen), you can go ahead and take it with ibuprofen.


What happens if you take 3 ibuprofen?

Nothing really. You can upset your stomach and/or cause ulcers with too much, however when I hurt my back the doctor gave me a prescription for 800mg of ibuprofen and I had to take it three times per day (that is 4 normal ibuprofen tabs) I just wouldn't take it for long periods of time. If you have that intense pain for that long, tell your doctor, and they will prescribe something else that will help much better.

I tried to OD by 1300mg diphenydramine and 100 mg ambien the night after you had taken approximately 10000mg ibuprofen Why am I not dead its two days later?

Wait a few more days, you may yet bleed to death. From the insides. Seriously, If you did that RUN to the nearest phone and dial 911, you may be internally hemorrhaging. 10,000mg of Advil?!? your kidneys may be on the verge of failure.
