Good day,

I am experiencing severe tooth pain, probably 7/10. The standard 400mg motrin, 1000 mg tylonol mix isnt working (offset every 4 hrs) I have darvaset prescribed and have taken one, but am not sure if I can take another. Time frame of meds is as follows:

1000mg Tylonol 630p
Darvacet 1030p

Tylonol and darvacet have the same active agent you can take tab Diclomol for your relief but i would not suggest you to rely on these medications for tooth pain. Any pain in tooth arises due to an infection in the tooth which usually is a dental decay or a gum infection in either case medication only temporarily subsides your pain and the problem recurs again after few days in worse manner so much so that it is not possible for the dentists to save the tooth. So for any of the patients with dental complains who are reading this if you know over the counter drugs you can take it to relief yourself of pain but do visit your dentist immediately to get the cause corrected at an earlier stage. You like your teeth don't you !
