Can Taking Excedrin Along With Zzzquil Be Safe?
Is it safe to take excedrin and generic zzzquil together? I had a bad headache so I took some excedrin and then not too long after that I decided to go to bed and took some generic zzzquil without even thinking about if it would react until after I took them.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are different formulations of excedrin. It may contain acetaminophen, aspirin or/and caffeine.
Caffeine decreases sedation and zzzquil increases sedation, this may not have any effect at all but it is the only known interaction between these agents.
I hope this helps
