A member asked:

Yesterday, i took a dosage of ibuprofen for a menstrual headache. afterwards, i became so dizzy that i could barely walk, my heart rate sped up and be?

Migraine: Sounds like a migraine, but it could be a reaction to too much ibuprofen. Make sure you're not taking more than 3200 mg per day, and no more than 600 mg at a time. Make sure you're drinking plenty of fluids.
