Yes, I used it for years. To help with cramps also use a heating pad on your lower back or tummy, drink hot tea, and stay away from sugar and caffeine. If you have PMS along with your cramps the above suggestions will help with that as well. You may have to do what I finally did if your PMS/cramps are bad enough and that is get Birth Control pills. The birth control took care of all of my problems with a period.

Can you take Tylenol with Midol?
When a woman is on her period (menstrual cycle) her body, depending on the person, cramps up a lot. These cramps are from her body contracting and squeezing to release blood. Midol and Pamprin were made to help make the cramps not as painful. I've taken both, and in my humble opinion Midol is much better. Also, according to a close friend, if a male takes Midol he gets an instant erection or...boner. Though I wouldn't recommend taking Midol if you're a guy - it was designed for a female's body.
