A member asked:
Is it safe to take advil (ibuprofen) cold and sinus and then 3 hours later take nyquil?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: They are different meds with different effects. NyQuil is antihistamine + cough suppressant. Advil (ibuprofen) is NSAID anti-inflammatory + decongestant. You neglect to identify your symptoms. You might benefit from both, or you might do better with something else.
