My pharmacist told me that one CAN take Aleve and Tylenol together because they are different preparations, and they CAN work synergistically to (1) reduce inflammation [Aleve] and (2) relieve pain [Tylenol]. This combination is the only treatment that used to help my daughter with severe menstrual pains.
What you CAN'T do is combine Aleve with aspirin-type or other types of ibuprofen medications. Tylenol is different. Follow the label directions on BOTH products.

Aleve And Tylenol

After foot surgery my doctor told me I could take 2 Aleve and 2 Tylenol to replace the strong pain killer that I was put on right after surgery that made me constipated. I took this every 4 hours for a bit then cut it back to every 6 hours, then cut back to one of each every 6 hours, then as needed. It worked fine, but I don't have any liver issues. You shouldn't take this combo if you have any liver issues.

tylenol 1000 mg every 6 hours

Actually it is safe to take the two combined for short term pain relief. If you have a toothache I advice that you see a dentist as soon as possible. For a toothache though you may see better results with taking 800mg of ibuprofen along with a normal Tylenol dose. 800mg is prescription strength and you can take it every six hours, while alternating with Tylenol every 3 to 4 hours. The two medications in combination together work best for toothache, unless you have a prescription pain medication. then you can take ibuprofen with loratab

Yup! I've done this plenty of times throughout my life when I was in pain or if I am looking for a good nights rest and I am as healthy as a horse. It wont hurt. I'm serious. They are two different types of meds.
If, you are just having minor pain just take 2 IbPs and 1 tylenol extra strength. That should get you through the day without bugging you too much.
IF you feel like a miniature sized cave man is inside your mouth clubbing your gums to death, then I would suggest taking 3-4 of the IbPs and 2 of the Tylenol extra strength (IbP 1 tablet = 200mg; Tylenol 1 tablet= 500mg...now do the math). According to my doctor, who prescribed me IbP 800mg per pill. It wont kill you unless you abuse them. This I guarantee after 20 minutes you will feel like a million bucks. Do this only in extreme cases and no more than once in a day. And dont even think about making this a daily ritual...Unless you dont intend to keep your liver.
This is for anyone who wants to know.

My allergy doctor told me to take 2 tylenol and 2 aleve to help suppress my nagging cough. He said together they do the same as the prescription cough medicine with codeine.

Well a dentist informed me because I was also having toothpain, that you can take 2 Tylenol and 4 advil and that works like a 800mg ibuprofen

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.
If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.
Like a magic wand was waived, you'd be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.
And imagine that you'd never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.
I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.
It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.
Today, I want to do the same for you!
