Yes, you can take ibuprofen and codeine together with no adverse effects. The two work in different ways to block pain. The two are sometimes even prescribed together when a patient needs an anti-inflammatory as well as a narcotic opioid to block pain.

Tylenol 3 is prescribed for pain, ibuprofen is an over the counter inflammatory for pain. If Tylenol 3 isn't taking the pain away it shouldn't hurt to take an anti inflammatory as well but you should let your Dr know so he can adjust your meds accordingly.

Do Ibuprofen have codeine sulfur pencill?

Ibuprofen is an over the counter (OTC) pain medication. That means you can buy it without a prescription. Codeine is a prescription medication in the United States. In the prescription medication Vicoprofen, Ibuprofen is combined with hydrocodone, which is a synthetic codeine (the prescription medicine found in Vicoden). Sulfa and penicillin are another class of medication altogether and would not be combined with Ibuprofen. That's not to say you cannot take them together if your Doctor prescribes them.


Can naproxen sodium and codeine phosphate with ibuprofen be taken together?

It can, but isn't necessary. Codeine is a stronger analgesic and with it having ibuprofen, it has the same benefit that naproxen would have if added. Kinda like taking codeine with 2 ibuprofens. Not needed. If more pain relief is needed you would want to see about an increased dosage of codeine w/ibuprofen... You shouldn't take ibuprofen and Naproxen together... both act the same way on the same receptors.. you'll only get more side effects and toxicity.
