Can U Take Prednisone With Advil

4 Topics Found

The doctor had me stop taking methylpredmosolone for dizziness effects one day ago. Now in bed I have a throbbing headache. Can I take am Advil ## Hello, Lynn! How are you feeling? According to the U.S. FDA taking it with the steroid still in your system could increase your risk of stomach ulceration. Most times, it is best to stick with just Acetaminophen/Tylenol, unless your doctor instructs otherwise. Its typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with?

I started on prednisone for extreme knee and hip pain. Can't sleep. No relief yet. Can I take hydrocodone? I took Tylenol several hours ago with no relief from that either. ## I was put on Celebrex, 200 mg, for severe hip pain and arthritis. Can't mix Advil (only Tylenol) which does nothing for me. Tried cutting a 5/300 Vicodin in half and that sure helped take the edge off. Am going to discuss further with my neuromuscularskeletal doctor. Trying to avoid an epidural shot and surgery. I have been diagnosed with spinal stenosis and scoliosis, along with arthritis. ## Thank You very much for sharing your challenge with me. It definitely helped me. I decided to break one of the 7.50 hydrocodones in half (i know naproxen is a no-np). I took half and within 10 minutes I felt NO pain....

Cant sleep while on this medication! Can I take a sleeping aid? Tyenol PM or advil PM ## Can't sleep on prednisone what can I take yo)to. help me ## I would recommend staying away from the Advil/Ibuprofen, because it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and taking it with the Prednisone can seriously increase the risk of developing stomach problems, such as bleeding ulcers. There are, however, no interactions listed between taking the Prednisone, with the Tylenol PM, which contains Acetaminophen and Diphenhydramine, but you may want to double check that with your pharmacist to be certain. Are there any other questions or comments?

I took 20 of pred this am and I take celexa.. I have a horrible headache and need to take something for it.. Can i take nyquil or excedrine migrane or advil or something? its really a pounder.. thanks ## Hello, Tami! How are you feeling? I'm sorry about the headache. If your doctor approves, the best thing to take is Tylenol/Acetaminophen, as most others can cause interactions with your other medications. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Acetaminophen as possibly including nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with?
