Don't take it at the same time, as with any meds when you taking multiple ones per day, try to space them out at least a few hours in between, ideally at least 4 hrs. You should be ok but watch the intake amount.
If you start getting ringing in the ears (if you don't already have that due to a cold/flu I expect you may have) then don't take anymore tylenol tonight.
Feel better! Pretend we just brought over some homemade chicken soup! :)
Are you saying that you have taken Nyquil AND Tylenol together? If you took a normal dosage of each then you will be OK, but don't do that in the future because Tylenol is hard on the liver.
Outside of tricyclic anti-depressants, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is the worst drug to overdose on. Tylenol can cause irreversible liver damage/failure. Some individuals are more sensitive to its effects than others. I would not experiment, although a single dosage of both at same time would unlikely cause serious problems.
you should not take more than 4000mg of actetominophen in a day. As long as they where take separately it should be fin. You can Ck on the medication box how many mg of acetaminophen is on the nyquil, i think its 325mg.
you'll be ok. as I am studying to become a pharmacy technician, I've learned that a lot of drugs are labeled to let the consumer know that they shouldn't take another drug together with it but that's ususually just in large doses. You should be fine, especially because tylenol has acetometephin in it and nyquil also has it in it. You shouldn't get sick or anything unless you're a small person and didn't take alot. good luck!
You are going to be fine dear calm down.... ACETAMINOPHEN is the same thing as tylenol so it should be ok... but that all depnds on how many tylenol you took as well but if you took 2 tlyenol that would be like taking 3 tylenol with the nyquil you are ok hun
