A member asked:
Is excedrin bad for a person? if you aren't allergic to it, is it bad. is it wiser to take just tylenol (acetaminophen) or aspirin..basically id like the safest one.

It depends: What you take depends on if you are treating inflammation or other pain generators. At the recommended doses excedrin can be helpful. Watch out for the caffeine content.

I noticed excedrin has both acetaminophen and aspirin. I am wondering what the rationale is behind this since they are both painkillers.
Why is the dose of Excedrin Migraine limited to two pills per day even though the ingredients can be taken individually at higher doses? Two pills is 500mg each of acetaminophen and aspirin. The upper limit of both is much higher if taken separately?
