What would happen if I took 6 ibuprofen?!


Question: I thought the maximum I could take was 4, so I went ahead and took 6 (my nose hurt really bad). But I read the label afterwords just to check and the maximum was 1 every 4 to 6 hours. Will this just make me feel weird or what?

What will we do with you? Why did you take so much? Where did I go wrong? Call the toll free number on the bottle and see what they say. Don't take anymore please.

stomach bleeding

Normal ibuprofen is 200mg, prescription ones are 500 and they tell you to take 2, so you haven't really taken an overdose. Nothing will happen.

Depends on the dosage. I take 4 ibupforen all the time, but they are 200mg's so 800 total. I know that if I take too many sometimes it tears up my stomach. But that is all I have noticed.
Thanks

If you do it for a extended period of time it will cause stomuch bleeding. For one time it won't hurt you at all. I used to have really bad knees and my doctor told me that when they were really swollen I could take up to 8 ibuprofen 3 times a day for no longer then 5 days with no side effects. Have been doing it for years and no problems yet.

probably nothing you should be alright. 6 is not that many

You could cause serious and permanent damage to your stomach and liver.

I wouldn't make a habit of it as it can eat your stomach up. Try reading the label the next time because it would be quiet around here without you. : {
