can you take imitrex with tylenol

Take Tylenol if it doesn't go away with medicine you need to get checked out.

But my neurologist prescribed both 10 mg of Amitriptyline and Imitrex. So I think it should be fine. You can ask a pharmacist or your doctor to make sure. But I am on both of those plus Trokendi XR and Clonazepam.

No, they are not going to give you more Imitrex, you hit max dose so, that is the max you can have. The last time I went to the ER for a migraine the only thing they gave me was Toradol in my IV and it did absolutely nothing. They let me go a few hours later and gave me an Rx of Tylenol 3 which did nothing. ERs do not freely give out narcotics because of everyone abusing them so much these days.

Thanks. My mistake. Naproxen was on the list as naprosyn so I won't take any Aleve. I think I will not take the Imitrex, even though none of it's components are on the list. If I get a migraine, it'll have to be Tylenol.

I have a long history of migraines and so had to have a med I could take on treatment. I opted for Imitrex because it is okay with the Peg, Riba, and Incivek. Interestingly enough, I have not had any bad migraines on treatment but I think that is because I know most of the migraine triggers and have avoided them like the plague. Before treatment, I was taking Cafergot and a tiny dose of Tylenol # 3 when I got the migraines, which was not often these last few years.

I have used Remeron in the past with good relief. The generic name is Mirtazapine. You take it as you feel the migraine coming on and it generally kept it away for me. Ask you Doc about it. It's non habit forming too!!

it depends when you take it and what type of a triptan you have, really. If you take your triptan, the imitrex, at the first sign of a migraine, YES it will work!! If you wait to take it until the headache is very bad, then it may not work as well.

No useful suggestions but I can sympathize with you, I have meditations on my phone that guide me and help me try and calm myself from the pain which helps

if you take robitussin or mucinex my doctor said its better to take the "DM" kind, and take only about half of the recommended dose

Hi Mandy, Imitrex tablets have done wonders for my headaches/migraines. Fioricet didn't touch my pain but even if I take a half of an Imitrex tablet for the nasty headaches that aren't quite migraines yet, I feel so much better. I save a whole tablet or sometimes 2 tabs for the whopper migraines. Imitrex is in a class of medication known as sumatriptans and is not a narcotic. You definitely need insurance for it since it's expensive but the copays aren't bad at all.

Hi ladys im 19 weeks pregnant can I take tylenol extra strength or can it only be tylenol? Im having a bad tooth ache and tylenol extra strength is what i have at home rite now! please help??

Right now I am in the middle of a 2 week long migraine headache. My OB has given me Tylenol with codeine which isn't helping at all. Is there anything else that I can try that won't be harmful to the baby? I'm really trying to avoid going to the ER because I don't want to have to be admitted.

s experience with the imitrex has been - good or bad - and if they have any other tips of things I can try (non-medicinal) to reduce the pain, etc., of the migraines. Fortunately, (knock on wood), I haven't had a migraine since I saw my doc on thursday, so I haven't tried the imitrex yet. I'm always leary/hesitant about ANY new medication, so would definitely appreciate any advice about this med that anyone might have. Thanks so much!

I also suffer from migraines & used to take Maxalt. When I was pregnant with my 1st, the dr prescribed Imitrex & I've been taking it since. I take 1/2 a pill & if it doesn't work (which it does most of the time), then I take the other half. You are supposed to take it at the onset of a migraine otherwise it gets so bad that the meds are not as effective. Talk to your dr ASAP! And congratulations on your blessing!!!

You can always take Tylenol cold capsules too for sinuses and what not

I took this med long ago and don't remember how it effected me but I will get back to you with some more info:)

You can take a regular dose of Tylenol.

Ugh,man.Ty dosent do anything for me.But thank you.Maybe if I try to take a nap.

I found that drinking a lot of water helped a bit but usually I would need an analgesic to help. I used Tylenol #1 which you can get in Canada, over the counter, by asking the pharmacist. There's also generic brands available. I would take two at once. This would deliver as much acetaminophen as two regular strength Tylenol and as much codeine as one Tylenol #2.

Has the Dr ever prescribed imitrex? I suffer migraine headaches. As well. Just a question, your Dr has you on pain pills for another ailment, right?

Thanks. I will give it a try.

I think I've asked this before, but I'm in so much pain right now I can barely take it. Right now, where my pain is, is where I'd pop a perc....actually, I'd have already popped like 4 about 3 hours ago, if it were the pre-w/d me... but seriously my head is pounding, my back is in knots, my head hurts so bad my ears hurt...and this is the exact pain that got me into the mess with painkillers.

My guess is that your anxiety is counteracting the drug effect (which is a known negative effect with this medication). I do not know what you are doing to deal with the anxiety, but I think that this is where your cure lies. To my knowledge, there is not a negative physical effect on your penis. S.A.Liroff, M.D.

Any form of Tylenol is safe. I would take Tylenol soar throat or cold medicine.
