Q: so basically i can take the nyquil after theraflu but only a little bit ? or i should wait about an hour?

: Both of these medications contain acetaminophen and taking both at less than 6 hours apart, you risk overdosing on acetaminophen. Do not take more than 3-4 g of acetaminophen in one day and no alcohol while you are taking it.
