A member asked:
I took 800 mg ibuprofen at 10:30 pm then extra streath tylonal 500 mg six hours.later will i be okay?

Yes: This is well within the recommended dose guidelines for the medications. Both differ in the way the body disposes of the medication.The Ibuprofen exits primarily through the kidneys and the tylenol (acetaminophen) through the liver.There is no risk in stacking these different medications but i usually recommend folks use one or the other.
