Accepted Answer

Lithium interactions: I take 450 mg of lithium nightly and have been taking 800mg of Advil for a cold the last few days, am I ok to take Xanax with these drugs? ANS: lithium is a tricky drug and you should review any other meds with your team before taking them. Many cold meds may interact.   But probably not for short term. Better safe than sorry.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Not sure: I'm sorry, but i'm not sure how to understand your comment. When you take these medicines, what are you wanting them to do, that you say "it doesn't work" when you take them?  These are all different medicines, which could be prescribed or taken for various, possibly unrelated, conditions.  Different people might experience different effects with them.  Can you please tell us more what you mean?

Tylenol (acetaminophen) and. Xanax: Take one dose of 1000 mg of tylenol (acetaminophen) with your xanax now. If this does not help in 2 hours take 600 mg of advil.

Your mouth open but your lips slightly pursed. Feel the relaxation as it moves from the top of head to toes.

Accepted Answer

Ibuprofen should: not interfere with the other 2 medications, though I would ask the question why you need to take Xanax (alprazolam) for a headache? I would consider using only ibuprofen for now until your symptoms improve, or go see a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.  And thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
