Brief Answer:
yes, you can use Tylonol (acetaminophen)

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using HCM to post your question.

You can take a non-aspirin painkiller with Voltaren. Tylonol (acetaminophen) is usually used in this case. Take 500-1000mg, every 4-6 hours. It will enhance the effect of Voltaren.

Depending on the reason why you are using the painkiller, you can also use a local painkiller, like voltaren gel. But again, it depends on the fact if you can localize the site of the pain.

Hope this is helpful. Let me know if you need more clarifications. Otherwise please close and rate the answer.

Regards,
