A member asked:
If i take 800mg of ibuprofen, can i take acetaminophen? if so, how much, and should i space them apart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can combine: Tylenol (acetaminophen) is commonly combined with Ibuprofen. You can take 500 mg four times a day. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and bedtime. You can take Ibuprofen three times a day. Spacing them apart could help with the pain, but can take them at same time.
