YES: That is too much! 4 pills (800 mgm) every 8 hours for total of 12 pills /24 hours is PRESCRIPTION STRENGTH and you should NOT be taking this level without MEDICAL SUPERVISION!! YOU RISK KIDNEY DAMAGE OVER THESE LEVELS (not to mention the effects on your STOMACH!) Hope this helps! BE WELL! Dr Z
