All I can do to reduce stress at work is take a few breaks from the computer and leave early if a bad headache comes on. The headache potency and frequency also seems to correlate to the amount of quality sleep I have had the night before. Poor sleep plus a stressful next day and I'm wiped!

I have not tried Tylenol while on the Amitriptyline. Good advice, I'll call my Neuro and ask him what he thinks about taking the two together.

Thanks for your help!

I take 100 mg at bedtime. My doc said take it at bed because it's sedating.

There is no reason you can not take Tylenol and amitriptyline at the same time. They do not work on the same systems

btw, spelling amitriptyline is quite an effort. Does your spell check underline it? Mine does and makes a strange suggestion for the proper spelling. Tell you later. Don't want to ruin the fun of spell check.

Drugs.com said this

amitriptyline/perphenazine
Tylenol (acetaminophen)
Interactions between your selected drugs

There were no interactions found in our database between amitriptyline/perphenazine and Tylenol

However, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. ALWAYS consult with your doctor or pharmacist. (this is the normal disclaimer)

My best to you.

xxxcrystalxxx,

100mg Wow..that seems a little too much for me to handle. I guess I just need to man up and try the 25mg at night for a few more days. During the day, the 25mg seems fine as I am awake to drink plenty of water for the dry mouth. Thanks for the reply.

Mark in Idaho,

Unfortunately, my spell check is of the garden variety, just a boring squiggly underline.
