is it safe to take tylenol pm and aspirin at the same time?

Question

is it ok to take tylenol pm and aspirin (2-3, 325mg tablets) at around the same time? would they react negatively together? is it dangerous? any answers would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

Answer 1

Yes, at normal doses and not too frequently, this is fine.

Look at the ingredients in "Goody's Powders" which have been used for many years:
Acetaminophen 260 mg / Aspirin 520 mg / Caffeine 32.5mg

We know that excessive use of combinations like Goody's can lead to kidney problems, so just don't over do it.

Answer 2

Aspirin With Tylenol

Answer 3

Yes, you'll be OK if you take them together, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it. If you do take them together remember Tylenol and (especially aspirin) can be hard on your stomach so you want to make sure to protect your stomach with some food. Aspirin was once known as more of a pain killer, but doctors discovered that it was really more useful as a mild blood thinner for people with high blood pressure (thats why some people take a baby aspirin every day).

Answer 4

You can take them together because they are different medications. However, taking them together may not be necessary or advantageous. Tylenol is acetominophen and Aspirin is salicylic acid: two different classes of medications although they are sometimes used to treat the same things. They just act differently. If one is 12 or under, they should never use Aspirin because of the risk of Reyes syndrome.

Answer 5

Tylenol & Aspirin are different meds.that do the same thing.You should NOT take them at the same time.You will overdose by taking them together.It's either one or the other....
