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 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 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 Acetaminophen is metabolized by the liver. Doses of acetaminophen greater than the recommended doses are toxic to the liver and may result in severe liver damage. In other words, perhaps the 'hollow headedness' is due to liver reaction from large dose of acetaminophen. Best wishes!
1323278 tn?1298122488 Acetaminophen far below the toxic dose taken on a daily basis can lead to liver damage. While ibuprofen can upset the stomach, there is a second drug, Cytotec (Misoprostol) that can protect your stomache while taking NSAIDs There are also enteric coated NSAIDs that do not dissolve in the stomach but dissolve in the intestines. We should always let our doctors know all of the medication, including over the counter, herbal supplements, vitamins and other substances (Medical Marijuana?
Avatar m tn I still found blood in my urine and was sleepy at the end of june (or 2 months after the coumadin overdose), with my little cuts lasting for weeks and looking like scarring. The new cardiologist ran tests. The new cardiologist took me off Digoxin. He explained it was just his habit. I noticed things like the cuts healing faster, dark urine but not bloody, and loss of awake not happening at critical times, with an overall feeling better.
Avatar m tn We want to confirm that you have called an ambulance and they have received medical care. Tylenol is toxic to the liver as you know but hopefully he will be alright. He's indeed taken a dangerous amount. Please let us know how he is doing. We wish you and your friend the best.
Avatar n tn 7,000 is considered overdose. The symptoms of overdose may not appear for over 12 hours. It is crucial that you see a doctor or get to the ER. Have you been using for long?
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 Can a baby overdose off of hydrocodone, oxycodone , or Roxycodone through breast milk if the mother takes the right dosage, or slightly more, only once a day and not everyday.

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 f tn I was wondering if anyone knew that they had a toxic reaction to taking too much B6 at a high dose for too long? That they had a reaction of a shock, that ran in a current. I think its best describe as a electric current that ran a course. I felt this shock in 4 different spot and then it was repeated. It ran from my diaphragm to esophagus to my heart and to the back of my head. (I had been ill for about 2-3 months after I had ingested three months of 300mg. of B6, when this happened.
Avatar f tn Unlike Meth and Cocaine, however, standard Emergency Room procedures for treating Meth and Cocaine overdose do not work well with “Bath Salts.” Administering Valium to patients suffering from the toxic effects of “Bath Salts” does not result in positive responses to treatment. Standard hospital treatment for drug overdose does not work effectively on “Bath Salts.” Even when patients come off of sedation, behavior has been shown to revert back to the uncontrollable state of psychosis.
1644541 tn?1302992157 If your doctor said to avoid it then by all means don’t use it. If a friend told you it was toxic to the liver, it is; but only in large doses. Acetaminophen continues to be the most widely recommended OTC analgesic for patients with liver disease. Other drugs like aspirin and NSAID drugs can affect how your blood clots; something that can be an issue with liver illness anyway.
Avatar m tn Do NOT give ibuprofen to your dog, it is highly toxic to them. If you want to try an over the counter medication to your dog, you can try aspirin, but in low doses. Here's a website with a pretty good break down on what you should and shouldn't give your dog as far as pain killers go. http://www.dogchannel.com/dog-information/dog-vet-geller-dvm/article_18550.
Avatar f tn Most likely it would make you sick to your stomach (the tylenol or acetominophen does this). 6 grams of tylenol at once can be fatally toxic to the liver and each pill has either 500mg or 325mg. The FDA claims you should not exceed 4grams in a 24 hour period. Otherwise, you are killing your liver and kidneys with each pill.
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 m tn Treatment of a serious paracetamol overdose is done by administration of an antidote, which can defeat and combat the toxic effects of the overdose. Seek immediate medical care to make sure you haven't taken an overdose. Seek help for your depression or other mental issues. Good luck.
