Yes, you can take Tylenol with ciprofloxacin.
The best way to determine if you can take any medications together is to have a drug interaction screen performed by a health care provider.
There are literally hundreds of antibiotics used to treat infections, so once you receive your prescription, ask your doctor or pharmacist if you can also take Tylenol at the same time that you take the antibiotic.
Usually this is not a problem, but you should always double check.
