Question 1

is it okay to take tylenol (acetaminophen) while taking 20 mg citalopram? would not be taking them at the same time.

Accepted Answer

Yes: As long as you are not taking more than 3g (3,000mg) of Tylenol (acetaminophen) a day, you should be fine with taking it at the same time as citalopram. The concern is for liver damage, which is why I would not suggest more than 3g Tylenol (acetaminophen) daily or for a prolonged period of time.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Combination medicati: Yes, it is OK to take all of them together as prescribed by your doctor.

Question 3

safe to take tylenol (acetaminophen) for headache? taking lantus, celexa 20mg and lorazapam .25 2-3x prn (tapering)
thanks

Accepted Answer

Usually Yes...: For some people Tylenol (acetaminophen) can help with muscle tension headaches.  Don't take more than 2 grams (3 max) per day since that can cause liver damage.  If your headache doesn't get better or changes then talk to your doctor.

Question 4

Question 5

is it okay to take acetaminophen, phenylephrine hci, dextromethorphan hbr, and chlorpheniramine while taking concerta and celexa (citalopram)?

Accepted Answer

Good Question: Generally speaking, most otcs are ok to take with Concerta and celexa, (citalopram) and certainly you should not stop either of the two to take the otc. But you should use your own experience to help you select any cold or congestion remedy. In particular, you should try to limit/avoid any stimulant-like meds (phenylephrine and sudafed) with adhd meds, esp. If is already combined with an antidepressant.

Question 6

i have been seizure free on 3.2 dilantin levels for 17 years can i take acetaminophen and tramadol hydrochloride for toothache also take celexa (citalopram)?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: There is always a risk of seizures with tramadol, even in those that do not have a seizure disorder.  I'd avoid it for seizure patients myself.

Question 7

after surgery doc gave me norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) for pain. have some realistic wild dreams. doc also gave me celexa. scared to take that cause how i felt on norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen)?

Accepted Answer

Norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen): I would not recommend Celexa (citalopram) for a drug-induced hallucination. You should probably get a different pain medication.

Question 8

taking tylenol regularity but never more than the recommended dose for last few weeks.social drinker.i'm worried about l have liver damage. symptoms?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor.: Initially, there are no symptoms to the kind of damage that Tylenol can do to the liver. Although you are likely to have not done any damage to the liver if you followed the directions, it would be prudent to get some blood drawn to be sure. It is a simple blood test. If you are worried, I would try to limit Tylenol and avoid alcohol until you have the blood test. Good luck.

Question 9

is it okay to take vimovo and tylenol #1?

Accepted Answer

Sounds ok: If a person had no prior problem with taking Vimovo (esomeprazole and naproxen) by itself, or either of its ingredients by themselves; and had no problem taking Tylenol #1 (acetaminophen and codeine) by itself, or either of its ingredients by themselves; then she should be ok taking Vimovo and Tylenol #1 together. They may cause stomach symptoms. Be sure to follow one's doctor's instructions.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Two different action: Tylenol is used to relieve pain 
Ambien is a sedative
They work differently and they do not interact with each other if they are not mixed with other medications.
