Tylenol and Motrin at the same time?

Question

Is it ok to give Tylenol and Motrin to a toddler at the same time for high fever?

Answer

You alternate. So Tylenol first, then one hour later you can give a dose of Motrin. Tylenol you can give every four hours after the first dose, Motrin every 6 hours. My family doctor just had us doing this this week with our daughter for her ear infection. The medications are processed two different ways by the body, and it ensures the pain meds never 'wear off'.

Answer

No, that's too much. Why would you want to give two medications at the same time? Give one or the other and use a cool cloth on their forehead.

Answer

Definitely NOT at the same time.

Answer

Tylenol and motrin are 2 different types of medication and can very safely be given at same time. although Tylenol can be given every 4 hours and motrin is every 6 hours.

Answer

Not at the exact same time but it's ok to alternate it in the same day

Answer

Change every 4 hours

Answer

Yes, just stagger the dosing times. Best to consult with your child's doctor. Usually you only give both for high fever or excessive pain. I believe you should wait at least 30 minutes before giving a dose of different medicine

Answer

Tylenol would work just fine. A bunch of water and a cool rag will also help
