Cough meds: That shouldnt be a problem as long as you watch how much of each you take and dont take them together directly.

Yes: As long as you only took 1 tablet of Tylenol (acetaminophen) #3, it's ok to take 1 tsp. of the Cheratussin AC. You don't want to exceed 60 mg. of codeine. Hope that helps!
