General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Taking Tylenol with your other medications would be safe, but I would advise against using Ibuprofen, since it is the same type of medication as diclofenac, and too much can cause side effects, sometimes serious.

However, if your headache is from allergies, and you have nasal congestion as well, taking an antihistamine such as Claritin, or a nasal steroid spray such as Flonase, may help more than the Tylenol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
