Can you take hydroxyzine and Tylenol pm together?

Answer:

Yes, you can take about 2 Tylenol PM's and however much hydrcodone your doctor is giving you. The only thing is that if you are thinking about going on Tylenol PM long-term you might want to talk to your doctor about that. And always remember to follow the dosage directions on the Tylenol PM box.

With all due respect, let's consider some prior postings, and use greater precision when offering lay advice in a forum such as this, especially when the person submitting an answer claims more than lay credentials.

From the phrasing of the question, and prior postings on this site, my assumption is that the question is unclear as it actually needs to be understood in terms of the chemical and its/their dosage(s) involved.

100% hydrodocone is not actually what is in the M357 [Mallinkrot Pharma's 5-500] or M-360 [their 7.5-750]. Practically any hydrocodone pill, as noted in many postings, contains 100x as much acetaminophen as hydrocodone. Oxycodone is one of the forms that lacks acetaminophen.

So does the question refer to someone taking a generic Vicodin [hydrocodone + acetaminophen] or 100% hydrocodone? It seems to me that this should be clarified, before posting the answer.

The significance of this clarification should not be overlooked, as I recently discovered that there are emergency room MDs who write prescriptions for hydrocodone, although their written narrative specifically states that "the patient should avoid the acetaminophen part" (!) A pharmacist can only fill the prescription as written and does not have access to the other paperwork that documents a patient-doctor visit.

The 4 gram (4,000 mg) daily acetaminophen limit can easily be exceeded if someone takes generic Vicodin with the Tylenol sleep aid (or its generic forms) containing acetaminophen.
