Not sure of question: EIGHT 500 mg pills in one handful ?!? this would be a dangerous overdose needing immediate attention. Depends on the amount of time over which this was taken. 1 valcyclovir with one glass of alcohol every 8 hrs wouldn't be very abnormal. but all of this at once is quite serious.

I had two glasses of wine at night and, not thinking, took a 500mg tablet of paracetamol for a headache. I rarely take paracetamol. I took provogil 200mg that morning too, and drank alcohol the night before also. Should i worry about an interaction?
