I'm not sure what's in them, other than acetominophen.  As long as they have no NSAIDS (so no asprin, ibuprofen, etc) they are OK.

I have taken the Tylenol products...Tylenol cold, flu...anything with acetaminophen. Feel better!

Yes, it is fine to take, but you might not get full effect from it. It doesn't contain any NSAIDs, but is a formulation that is a "pseudo extended release" as my pharmacist put it... so since the extended release doesn't work as well for us, she suggested regular Extra Strength Tylenol instead.  That never did squat for me, so  I didn't bother.
