A member asked:

Can i take tylenol (acetaminophen) and motrin together?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: These are different types of medications and do not interact with each other. Motrin is an NSAID which is both anti-inflammatory and for pain and fever. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is a pain and fever reliever. You should discuss your pain medicine regimen with your doctor.
