Is Tylenol Effective At Treating Pain After A Fall?
Brief Answer:
Information
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I checked in the Lexicomp drug database for any interactions between Plavix and Tylenol (acetaminophen) and there were no adverse interactions. So it is safe for her to take acetaminophen.
If she hit her head hard and especially if she lost consciousness, then she should go into the ER though to be evaluated for that. Otherwise, for more minor pain, Tylenol would be ok.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
