@clacke That's the first sign that you're being absorbed. Next thing you know, you'll be listening to country music and shopping for a giant pickup truck.
Checked online if acetylsalicylic acid and paracetamol are safe to take together, so that I'm not ruling out my chances at using the decongestant if I take my preferred analgesic.
For this search it's good to know that acetylsalicylic acid is better known in the US as the brand name Aspirin.
It's also good to know that the name of paracetamol is acetaminophen in the US and the popular brand name is Tylenol.
The outcome is that they seem safe (I am not your doctor etc), as there are even approved combined products.
As always with paracetamol be careful with the liver and with acetylsalicylic acid be careful with the stomach.
I found one study saying that both plus caffeine is more effective than either one of the three, didn't look closer what dosages they used. That sounds plausible. My analgesic of choice (Treo) has acetylsalicylic acid and caffeine.
Combining acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and ibuprofen is a generally bad idea, as their side-effects overlap and the risk stacks, and there are indications that ibuprofen may interfere with the blood-thinning aspect of ASA, if that's what you're taking it for.
@clacke: seeking 🇸🇪🇭🇰💙💛 @Thomas I've found that paracetamol taken for a toothache will not make me drowsy, paracetamol taken when I'm running a fever will, even when it's the same paracetamol pill.
@Thomas I don't know why they would recommend paracetamol over ibuprofen, maybe just because it has been around longer and has more recognition by habit.
Alternating sounds like a good idea based on my search results.

Unknown parent • • •@Thomas I've had chlorophenamine before without drowsiness. But then I've had paracetamol without drowsiness too.
Already tired as I stayed up too long probably contributed. And this morning I discovered I had covid, maybe that contributed too.

Though I've seen medical folks claim that acetominophen's effective dose and its toxic dose are too close together.

Unknown parent • • •@LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} Yes, acetaminophen/paracetamol basically shouldn't be over the counter, go only a bit over the recommended dose and you're already hurting your liver.
If ibuprofen ("Advil") works for you, always go for that instead, it's much safer.
