Tylenol

I’m post - op day 6. Can I take two Tylenol PMs?

The pills will likely be too large for your new stomach. See if you can get someone to buy you extra strength liquid Tylenol. Any major chain drug store will have it. They also sell children's Benedryl (diphenhydramine) in liquid.

That's really all Tylenol PM is....Tylenol with a dose of Benedryl in it.

As always, it's best to check with your doc (read through your packet of info, it's likely in there) about taking any meds this soon after surgery.

Yes, Tylenol and Benadryl are fine. The pills could be too large, but you can cut them in half or smaller. Just Benadryl pills are tiny for sleep and would work too or liquids as mentioned. I think they can also be crushed, but probably taste pretty terrible.
