Can I Take Tylenol 4 And Naproxen 550mg At The Same Time

Updated

I have had a couple of neck surgeries may need another and am waiting on 2nd hand surgery. My hand is killing me so I took a Naproxen 550mg and I was wondering if I can also take a Tylenol #4 at the same time.

Hello, Tonya! How are you?

I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these two medications, so it should be fine, as long as your doctor approves.

The FDA classifies Tylenol 4 as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

The typical side effects for Naproxen may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Taking NSAID's (Aleve (Naproxen) Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) with Acetaminophen/APAP/Paracetamol (basically any type of Tylenol) is perfectly fine.

There is no need to ask a doctor. I typically take ibuprofen with narcotic pain formulations such as norco/percocet. It gives it an extra edge on eliminating the pain and actually extends the duration of pain relief.

Even concomitant use (taking them at the exact same time) is completely fine.

Yes it would be fine to take Aleve or Aleve with Flexeril. Some studies success it would even be beneficial.
