Question 1

wondering if i can take vicodin and nyquil together?

Accepted Answer

Talk to your doctor: Both vicodin and nyquil have acetaminophen, you would essentially be doubling the dose when taking these together.  Also both drugs can cause drowsiness and if combined, you would be excessively sleepy and decrease your drive to breathe.  There are other combined side effects as well.  I highly recommend that you talk to your doctor before taking them both together.

Question 2

ok to take vicodin n nyquil together?

Accepted Answer

Vicodin + NyQuil: Do not take both of these drugs together.  Nyquil has a significant amount of alcohol.  This combination would be the same as taking vicodin with an alcohol beverage.  This combination will have an additive depressive effect on your body systems and could very well have serious adverse consequences.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Recommend against: Expiration dates are used for reasons. I cannot predict it would cause harm or that it would not work, but the risk outweighs the benefit.  I would get non-expired nyquil.

Accepted Answer

Vicodin: Hydrocodone is an opiate that is commonly used for short term acute pain such as minor injury, minor surgery etc. Its use on a long term basis is not recommended and leads to habituation at best and addiction at worst. Please see a pain specialist for proper evaluation and non-opiate treatment options. Good luck.
