Tylenol is a brand name for acetaminophen, which is a medicine used to treat pain and fever.

Drink coffee after taking Tylenol.
You can drink coffee after taking Tylenol. The amount of time it will take for the pain reliever to wear off and for you to feel better depends on how much Tylenol was taken, how old you are and whether or not other medications were also taken at the same time.
- Coffee is a diuretic, so it may cause you to urinate more than usual. If this happens while drinking coffee after taking Tylenol, it could lead to dehydration (a condition in which there’s not enough water in your body). Dehydration can cause headaches, stomach irritation or weakness; if these symptoms occur after drinking coffee while taking acetaminophen-containing products like Tylenol PM Nighttime Formula Caplets with Codeine #3/300 mg., consult a doctor immediately since they may indicate an overdose of acetaminophen and require medical attention.*
