Does tylenol work for migraines or sinus headaches?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Acetaminophen (Tylenol and other brands) often will be effective, and worth a try. It's not a very strong pain medication, but it works very well for some people and has lower chance of side effects than other common options like ibuprofen, naproxen, and related drugs. Good luck.
