Should Tylenol, Ibuprofen or Aleve be avoided while on the Big 3?

You can look here: https://www.rxlist.com/drug-interaction-checker.htm or ask your doc or pharmacist.
When I did this I learned that some of my other prescriptions were made less effective by the antibiotics, and that ibuprofen COULD be an issue. I discussed it with my ID doc, who told me never to take ibuprofen together with the antibiotics, but it was OK to take 2 hours before or after. This was later confirmed by a pharmacist whose job is evaluating complex medication regimens. If you use other meds (and supplements) beyond the Big 3 and an occasional pain reliever, I strongly suggest a consult with a medication specialist - you can find one through your clinic or doc.

Sue-
I haven't needed to take pain medication, as yet, but wanted to know what to do or not do, take etc., before needing to take something.
This thread is from 2019, Glad you posted this because I may have misunderstood what I read, in that I was under the impression we shouldn't take ibuprofen with BE.
Is there any new information that you know of regarding pain medication with BE and MAI, yet..... not on antibiotics?
Or is there any new information that you know of regarding pain medication with BE/MAI and.... on antibiotics?
If and when you have the time and can reply.
Thanks
Barbara
