Is caffeine in ibuprofen pills

Answer 1

No. ibuprofen is its own drug. Quite often, ibuprofen and caffeine are mixed in combination medicines.

Excedrin is a caffeine/acetaminophen(paracetamol)/aspirin mix.

Tylenol is a brand name for a chemical NAMED acetaminophen.

Answer 2

No, aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid. It does not include caffeine. There are medications which include both aspirin and caffeine, including Excedrin (and all of its various manifestations). For information about whether your aspirin product contains caffeine, check the label.

Answer 3

Plain ibuprofen tablets (Advil, Motrin) do not contain caffeine. Some products specially marketed for migraine headaches or menstrual discomfort may contain caffeine. Read product labels -- caffeine will be listed in the "active ingredients" section.

Answer 4

Mixing ibuprofen and caffeine can be common practice amongst many people forced to work long shifts - the symptoms are not dissimilar to that of cocaine. Although clearly it is less detrimental and much more mild. In broad, and simple terms, the effects of analgesics (ibuprofen, paracetamol) are enhanced vastly by caffeine, glucose and sugar. Taurine, present in most energy drinks (inc. Red Bull) enhances the effects of caffeine. You basically get a rather dangerous cocktail of painkillers and energy drinks, leaving you with a buzz but not the light-headed feeling you would get if you drank too much caffeine (your caffeine levels might still be at 60-120mg). You can expect this bus for (very, very) approximately five hours, obviously depending on weight, height, age etc. It is usually not a very good idea to do this as it puts a lot of strain on the vital organs and tends to leave you feeling drained and ill after.

Answer 5

Acetaminophen only contains acetaminophen, but some medications contain mixtures of acetaminophen, caffine, and possibly other things. Read the label to know for sure.
