A member asked:

I accidentally took excedrin and ibuprofen together. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Best not: It is best not to take Excedrin and ibuprofen together as they both work in a similar fashion and share possible side effects, however if the dose is in the usual range and this is not repeated there is little danger.
