Probably safe: With one dose you are probably perfectly safe. Everything one does in medicine involves a calculation of the risk of a course of action weighed against the presumed benefit of that course of action. In this instance, unless there is some underlying condition that you have not yet revealed I would think only one tab of Advil (ibuprofen) is enough.
