A member asked:
If i took 800 mg of advil (ibuprofen) pm one time then will it be okay? will anything happen to me?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be fine: You should be fine. 800 mg is the maximum dose to be taken by adults at any given time. That dose can be irritating to the stomach so if it wasn't too long ago eat some food to buffer any possible irritation. This high of a dose shouldn't be taken on a regular basis over a long period of time as it can harm the kidneys. This dose should have offered pain relief, assuming that is why you took it.
