Can you take Vicodin with a Advil PM? 2) sleeping disorder?



I took vicodin about 2 hours ago for my lower back pain and I need to go to sleep because I have to get up early. I have this thing where I love to sleep in until 3pm in the afternoon like I did earlier today and then I don't get sleepy at night! my whole routine is messed up. I love staying up until about 4am and then going to sleep and wakin gup at like 1 or 2 in the afternoon. So how can I stop that and also can I go ahead and take this advil PM to make myself sleepy after I took 2 vike'z?

hi this is Mickie, just took my ambin so some words are phonic i take vike'z (7 yrs) for my fibro my al ju, my C3,4,5 & S1 & L5 are bulging. the vike'zs have alot of ty la nal IN THEM your only suppose to take 400 mg daily per my doc. the vike'zs have that much unless you take the 375's which have much less tynol in them, so to answer question 2 vike'z 2 hrs ago probally the 500's or the 750's didnt work CALL your DOC he will probally tell you to take 2 more vike'zs and1-2 pm's, or the opp sit most people get sleepy when they take vicoden(if its the generic vike'z not suprized it didnt take pain away. get new mri, get tested for fibromayliga. if you take any other meds call a 24 hr walgreens or cvs and ask. how do you stop pain in back fast hot bath ,lobster red(as hot as you can take it) dont smoke,no tv music (soft) may work praying will usually do it for everyone. if you take nothing for sleep try the pm if you try anything else ambin cr, ambin reg which do work!!! you'll sleep great!! for 8 hrs& u take it more than 5 days in a row YOUR HOOKED. the cr's dont do a thing for anyone who has been on reg ambin. but check with a DOC 1st because you know why ur back hurts and i dont.hope ur pain free soon.
it won't kill you and you'll go to sleep so yeah...
Mixing in any Alcohol? The combination could be deadly.
Um...the Vicodin should make you sleepy already. I would say yes, it is safe. I used to take vicoden and advil together all the time.

(I also used to drink a little gin, it amplifies the effects of the vicoden...so you get sleepy :). But it can be bad for you. use with caution)
You can train your body to do anything. If you want to get on a regular sleep pattern, then instead of staying up until 4AM, go to sleep at a normal time like say 10 or 11PM. Then you should be able to wake up at say 7 or 8AM. If I were you I wouldn't take no Advil's or any kind of medicine to fall asleep because you can end up dependent on the meds or even take the wrong thing with it and it could have a bad reaction. Just do it all natural and you will see better results.
Call your local 24 hour pharmacy (like Rite Aid or Walgreens) and ask to speak w. the pharmacist. They'll be able to tell you for sure, based on the strength of the vicodin.

I wouldn't just mix them w. out doing that.
to get tired earlier, you could exersize a bit.....and since your back hurts I'd suggest resistance work outs with therabands (basically long ruber bands). Also cut back on caffiene intake (if any), take a warm bath.....and if that doesn't work, I start reading my bio books (ha). 2) normally advil and vicodin target different parts of the body, but since vicodin is such a strong narcotic, I'd recomend talking to your doctor first before taking a mixed coctail of meds.
