Tylenol Sinus Medication, hypothyroidism and insulin resistance? help!?

I have hypothyroidism and insulin resistance (not diabetic, my body makes too much insulin). I also have PCOS. I came down with a sinus infection, and bought a box of Tylenol Sinus Congestion and Pain Severe but on the back it says to ask a doctor before use if you have thyroid disease or diabetes. Would it be safe to take such a medicine? I take 500 MG once daily of metformin, 25 MCG of Levothyroxine, and Yasmin birthcontrol pill. I also do not have HBP.

Call a pharmacist and ask them they can tell you.

Most OTC meds can effect other prescription medications. Call your Doctor and talk with him or her before taking any other medications.

An extra day of caution could be your safety net. The doctor may call in a prescription for something that works better and will not effect your current conditions.

If you read on the side of most packages, anyone with diabetes etc should not take any medications like Tylenol sinus etc. You should speak with your doctor about what is safe to take. Also, if you have a sinus infection you should be on antibiotics. See your doctor.

I'm not diabetic or taking birth control pills, but I do have hypothyroidism and take 200mcg of lyvothyroxine. I've taken Tylenol Sinus Meds. and have not had any problems, but check with your dr. just in case.
