I took 2 excedrin pills yesterday on an empty stomoach and woke up today with contraction like pain behind both my left and right rib cage. ?

Stomach pain : Taking excedrin on an empty stomach can cause gastritis ( inflammation of the stomach ) . Aspirin and nsaids are recommended to be taken after meals. You can now take antacids to help with the pain and if that persists you need to see your doctor.
