Avatar m tn According to research institutes, Ibuprofen overdose damages your internal organs like liver. While in some cases it has been reported that it has result in a permanent liver damage, in other cases where the victim was taking the dose for a long and continued period it has resulted in organ failure one by one.
Avatar f tn You need to tell someone now. Is there anyone at home with you? Please get to a doctor or ER and make sure you tell them exactly what you took. There are more appropriate drugs available to help induce sleep, both over the counter and by prescription. Talk to an adult soon. Please... Post an update please.
Avatar n tn You should be just fine unless you have an allergy to ibuprofen. Prescription Motrin is 800mg of Ibuprofen so that is the equivalent of four of the 200mg Ibuprofen. If you don't break out in a rash or have breathing difficulties after taking one or two Ibuprofen, please don't lose sleep over taking a third. As I said, as long as you can take Ibuprofen in the first place without having a problem, three won't bother you.
Avatar m tn Can someone give me either the symptoms or the timeline for an Ibuprofen overdose? And what's going to happen if I don't get treatment? I've taken approx. 40 200mg ibuprofen tablets, 32 hours ago.
Avatar f tn Nobody knows. I had an ibuprofen overdose, but it was over a long period of time, and it affected my intestines, mostly my colon, causing colitis. I had frank blood suddenly one day, without any stool at all, and the abdomonal pain was horrible. I had a colonostopy, and was on medication for 2 months to try to heal my colon, it affected 3 ft, and it was almost gangrene. By the time I went to the emergency room, I hadn't eaten in 2 days, and yet the stupid, and I mean STUPID emergency Dr.
Avatar n tn Are leg cramps, weakness and soreness in the legs symptoms of a mutli vitamin overdose? I took about 12-14 over a three day period, thinking they were Tylenol. I also had a stomach ache, intestional cramps and very severe, frequent diarrhea. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
Avatar f tn Unfortunately not, you can have Tylenol.
Avatar f tn Is it safe to take 800mg ibuprofen & 650mg Percocet (each pill 325mg) together at once?
Avatar n tn Well, an overdose of ibuprofen is usually marked by drowsiness, stomache pains, and trouble breathing. I have never heard of hallucination being a side effect. That being said, when giving our little one's any medication including over the counter, it is extremely important to stick strictly to dosing instructions. I know the bottle I buy of infant tylenol or ibuprofen show recommended doses based on age and weight and of course frequency. Do not ever give more then she should get.
Avatar f tn ve taken prilosec and ranitidine suspecting reflux with no relief. Ibuprofen does seems to help. I do worry about taking Ibuprofen while I have an upset stomach and also the amount of ibuprofen I need in a day to feel better. If I wanted to feel comfortable all day, for instance, I would probably need about 400mg every few hours, and I wouldn't want to take that much. As an aside, I have never had a test when I was in the throes of a bad attack.
Avatar n tn I overdosed two days ago on ibuprofen and still feel off. Should I seek treatment? Would it still help? Would I be a suicide risk?
497348 tn?1283436066 I'm not even sure you should be taking serotin with your other meds. I have no idea what would constitute an overdose of this suppliment. I have no idea if this could produce an anxiety attack and lastly, I have no idea how long you are going to feel shaky, weak and have stomach problems. What I DO know is that until you learn to take medications as prescribed, you will continue to have problems. Call your doctor or a pharmacist!
Avatar f tn I over dosed on 300 200 mg Ibuprofen and was taken to the ER last week where i was given charcoal. Ever since i came back home my body has been acting funny and i am having extreme pain (it feels like my right kidney but it seems a little low to be my kidney) and i was wondering if there could have been some internal damage that would not have shown up right after the overdose but a little bit after? Should I be concerned or is this just my body trying to fix it's self?
Avatar f tn Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, drowsiness, black or bloody stools, coughing up blood, shallow breathing, fainting, or coma. I suggest you contact your doctor.
Avatar f tn I am nine weeks and have been experiencing back ache (due to an old injury) I usually get regular deep tissue massages and I know that I can't have them right now. I can't take ibuprofen but can I safely use ibuprofen gel to ease the pain?
Avatar f tn When I was around 15-18 wks I carried a non stop headache it was horrible when I told the Dr.
Avatar m tn then when I went home after school I had a little ache in my lower belly, took an aspirin for it....went for a pee and voila! There was the bleeding suddenly! I knew what to expect, and had some pads and tampons in my drawer in my bedroom ready. I was quite proud of this event! But it made me feel a bit tired and I always got slight cramps every time so I took ibuprofen every month for about 1 day which took the cramps away.
Avatar f tn Headache on left front side with a crazy visual aura, took zomig, hour later took ibuprofen 600, albuterol sulfate and Ritalin. Cold and hot feeling across skin, mostly on right side, nausea, joint pain, burning pain in abdomen and chest, dizzy, tired and short of breath. Migrating sharp pains across body. Ringing ears. Vision is unnaturally blurry. Chest and stomach symptoms worsen when laying down, head symptoms worsen when standing up.
Avatar n tn I believe the pain is coming from my stomach. I feel it right under the breastbone. I haven't had a gastroscopy, but have had both an upper gi series and a cat scan. Both produced negative results for ulcer, abnormalities etc. I try to minimize my acidic intake to see if that will help, and yes, pepto-bismol definitely helps. I wonder how long it takes to repair damaged stomach lining, from Nsaid overuse??? Any thoughts on that.
Avatar m tn This past 2 weeks I was ill with the h1n1 virus. During the 2 weeks, I consumed over 50 200mg pills of ibuprofen. I have had blood work done twice (5 days ago and 2 days ago). Both resulted in increased liver enzymes. I haven't had any ibuprofen in 4 days. Is it possible that my liver enzyme increase is a result of the "overdose" with the ibuprofen. My doctor has scheduled another blood work screening in two weeks. Will my liver enzymes decrease in this amount of time?
Avatar n tn My daughter is 9 years old and has been having severe stomach ache on a daily basis for 9 months. We finally had an endoscopy and stomach scan on Monday, the scan was clear however the endoscopy showed a large amount of red circular sores on her stomach lining. The doctor advised us it was helibactor pylori and that a sample had been taken and the results would be with us the next day. The results have come back negative for the helibactor.
Avatar m tn It sound like you you may have an infection in the glands.
Avatar m tn His doctor was horrified yesterday (day after shot) and had him take Benadryl, Ibuprofen and apply lots of ice. Today he received an IV antiobiotic and will get more tomorrow and find out what it is. The say he may have cellulitis. We both believe that his reaction is due to getting a 2nd dose so soon after the first and we hope that he does not have any lasting issues such as an impaired elbow joint, from this.
Avatar n tn Is the ibuprofen just for pain relief, or is it also to help aid in healing? Sometimes my stomach is sensitive to ibuprofen. If I have trouble, what else should I take? Thanks again.
Avatar f tn The Advil had 200 mg of ibuprofen. Later on I got cramps so at around four I took two midol extra strength. Each pill had 500 mg of acetominophen. Then I began getting a massive headache so at 6:45 I took one Tylenol extra strength tablet which also had 500 mg of acetominophen. Now I am worried because I took a little bit too much acetominophen And didn't wait long enough. Also I don't know if the combination of the 200 mg of ibuprofen and the beer could be bad as well?
Avatar f tn I take Ibuprofen as recommended by my hepatologist, but you have to be careful about taking it too often and never take it on an empty stomach. Tylenol didn't work for me either.
