A member asked:
I just took 3 excedrin pills, 3 naproxen pills, and two cold pills. is that dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes that is too much: anti-inflammatories at a time, likely too much acetaminophen in those "cold" pills along with Excedrin. If you get excessive sedation because of the "cold" pills, or jaundice, you need to proceed to the Emergency room right away for proper evaluation. Do not take any other pills in the next 24 hours.
