Acetaminophen and caffeine are often included together in "extra strength" pain relievers as the caffeine enhances the effects of the acetaminophen. That part at least is perfectly fine. Half ibuprofen half acetaminophen plus caffeine works even better.

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

The liver has different enzymes to break different molecules, so those drugs might all use different ones, not slowing down the breakdown of others. I didn't check. Wikipedia usually tells drug metabolism in detail.
Good point. I'll check. Though I'm not sure if that is the only point of relevance. What if the overal 'output' of the liver is still exceeded? Aka it's just working overtime producing those different enzymes.
Btw, we're all gonna want an update if you figure it out. I'm invested now
I'll try. Don't think it will have a happy ending though
Two things:
-
Generally when you take medicine with high acidity food, like coffee, it will break down your medicine prematurely - you won't get as strong as an effect. I had to stop taking my Vyvanse with orange juice because it basically nullified the medicine.
-
Talk to your doctor. I had chronic headaches that I found out were related to low blood pressure and dehydration. Drinking water instead of diuretics, like coffee, immensely helped me.
Fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk........... Point 1....no wonder.....
Talk to your doctor, do not get medical advice from the internet, it is too risky.
Half a pack of cigarettes will make the headache go away. Make sure to sprinkle them with turmeric.
Counterpoint: Do more drugs the internet says so.
It's best to talk to a doctor instead of asking random people on the Internet.
But since you asked, weed helps to mitigate headaches better than paracetamol and doesn't affect your liver.
thc and cbd are metabolised in the liver
I get headaches from weed
Another thing to talk to your doctor about.
good point, but I always thought this was not very uncommon actually, idk
Well, there's your problem, then.
can't argue that!
You take Ritalin with coffee? I have to space my Ritalin out from my morning coffee by at least an hour, or else I get horrible headaches which can last hours.
