A member asked:
I took 10 advil (ibuprofen) for a extreme ear pain if i only took 10 once will i be ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No way: to tell. If you just took them you may develop severe stomach pain and would need to go to hospital after taking some antacids, bananas, milky soup, bread or other very bland food to dilute the drug and protect your stomach. If you took them yesterday and had no problems with your stomach then you are probably OK. It was very foolish to take so much of this drug, at least 5x the dose on label.
