I see no reason why you couldn't mix the two if your trying to limit your APAP intake. If you're concerned about APAP toxicity and your liver check out N-acetyl cysteine. It's available online and used to treat Tylenol overdoses. Do a search here NAC. If you can't find anything PM me and I'll give you a link. Good luck.
Cheers

You can get NAC at any Vitamin Shop or GNC it is in the Amino Acid Section of the store. Use it it helps...a lot.

Just so you know doctors will say that between 2-4 grams of acetemetaphine is the limit per day. thats 2000-4000 milligrams

I know most of y'all are concerned over the apap amt's for your liver. My fiance (nurse) says they get quite a few folks in the hospital for stomach problems (ulcers, gastritis, acid reflux, etc.) caused from excessive IB. Many NSAID's (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) exacerbate this problem.
In other words, watch your intake of both meds (apap & IB). Daily limit of 1200 mg of IB. Both can really cause you problems

Will the NAC reduce the effectiveness of the APAP or the Hydro when taken together?

I take NAC since it is a precursor to Glutathione which helps the liver take care of the APAP. I haven't heard of or noticed any reduction in hydro/apap effectiveness from taking NAC.
