Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase dizziness while you are taking acetaminophen and pseudoephedrine. Also, alcohol is very damaging to your liver when it is taken with acetaminophen. Acetaminophen is a pain reliever and a fever reducer. It is used to treat many conditions, such as headache, muscle aches, arthritis, backache, toothaches, colds, and fevers.
Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant.
Acetaminophen and pseudoephedrine is used to treat nasal congestion, headache, fever, and other symptoms associated with allergies, hay fever, and the common cold. Acetaminophen and pseudoephedrine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide. Do not take this medication without first talking to your doctor if you drink more than three alcoholic beverages per day or if you have had alcoholic liver disease. You may not be able to take acetaminophen. A very serious drug interaction could occur, leading to serious side effects.
