Question 1

is it okay to take aleve 12 hours after last dosage of dayquil?

Accepted Answer

Yes, however: Yes, there are no significant interactions between Dayquil and Aleve. 
I do not know why you are taking these though with you taking Dayquil am guessing you have a cold/cough.
Know that these medicines only treat symptoms and do not address the cause. Vitamin C, zinc and herbs like Umcka and Andrographis help fight viral infections and homeopathy can treat symptoms as well as speed recovery.

Question 2

can i take (aleve) ibuprofen after taking dayquil i need something for my headache?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, you can do that for less than 3 days.

Question 3

i have a cold and i took some mucinex 600 mg guaifenesin a few hours ago along with some aleve. can i take some dayquil severe cold and flu now?

Accepted Answer

Give it time: A cold just needs to run it's course.  None of these meds makes it go away any sooner.  In fact, it might make you feel crummier.  It's stick to one remedy and folow it's instructions.  Otherwise, you are just doubling up on the same thing with more risk than benefit.

Question 4

should i take my prescription aleve (naproxen) and dayquil around the clock and forget the advil, will dayquil help headaches?

Accepted Answer

No: Just take the tylenol (acetaminophen) as needed. Nsaids carry much greater risk.

Question 5

i took an aleve (naproxen) this morning for a fever but i'm coughing and sneezing so much i'd like to take a dayquil. but is it safe after taking an aleve (naproxen)?

Accepted Answer

Yes but: Dayquil cough contains dextromethorphan, but some of the other preparations may contan acetaminophen, doxylamine or phenylephrine. None of these should interfere with aleve (naproxen) but the acetaminophen is also used to treat fever. So look at the label.

Question 6

i accidentally took two tablets of aleve and two tablets of dayquil in a matter of 10 minutes while half asleep this morning. should i call my doctor?

Accepted Answer

NO: You might get a bit drowsy- sleep it off.

Question 7

30mg of adderal a day + 60mg viagra (sildenafil) sunday+ dayquil sun -tues + alieve sunday gave me a rash tuesday? i have prescriptions for the required ones.

Accepted Answer

Too many drugs: I' m not a detective bit since your rash began on tuesday. I would suspect that viagra (sildenafil)  could have caused your rash. Aleve and dayquill could also be responsible. You may have to see an allergist to find the cause.

Question 8

can you take lunesta (eszopiclone) and aleve together?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There should be no problem taking these medications together. Remember that Aleve (naproxen) should be taken with food. Feel better and get some good sleep.

Question 9

i have endometriosis and the only thing that works is aleve. can take 3 tablets together? they are 220mg. i weigh 120pounds, 59 in height.

Accepted Answer

Endometriosis: Endometriosis can produce any and all of the symptoms described, but low dose oral bcp's should relieve most if taken correctly.  Stopping the ovarian production of estrogen, and the consequent dropping of estrogen levels pre-ovulation and pre-menstrual will stop most symptoms and preserve your fertility, at least at the degree you have now. See your gyn provider for an exam and advice.

Question 10

can i take aleve and cephalexin together?

Accepted Answer

Sounds ok: A person who has no problems taking naproxen (Aleve) by itself, and who has no problems taking cephalexin (Keflex) by itself, should also have no problem taking Aleve and cephalexin together. The two medications do not have noticeable interactions with one another.
