A member asked:

I took a celebrex 200mg at 1:30pm, i just took 2 advil at 8:30pm forgetting they are the same family. will it be ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I'd expect no serious adverse reactions with this combination with no further doses today. . If you took them on an empty stomach these meds could be irritating to the stomach lining. Celebrex and tylenol would be ok.
