  1. you shouldn't have taken that many. if you start to feel confused or dizzy call an ambulance right away. never take more than directed on the bottle.

    hope i helped


  2. Yes, you could be - please seek medical help immediately!  You can cause permanent liver damage - the emergency physician will check your levels to make sure that the ibuprofen levels in your body aren't toxic and then treat you accordingly - for example, you my have to drink liquids that have a medicine in them that binds with the ibuprofen and rids it from your body.  Please *get yourself checked* - tell your parents - whomever you can find to take you and get your toxicity levels checked!

  3. Yes! Call doctor right away! If it's within last couple of hours call 911 to get stomach pumped! Even if you recover never do thi again because it damages your liver. Take vitamin b ands c for stress next time and put on Pink Floyd Dark side of the moon. It always works for me. Good luck!

  4. Are you trying to hurt yourself?  That 3,000 mg of ibuprofen, way too much for your body. Call poison control and ask them  

  5. No you are in danger of getting  a severe bleeding stomach ulcer and a trip to the emergency roon.

    Very stupid idea.

  6. definately! you need to call the poison control 1-800-222-1222 or your dr.

  7. overdosing is dangerous, you should only take 3 tablets every 4-6 hours if you took them all at once you need to tell someone or contact a medical expert! there should be a number on the bottle for you to call.

  8. it really depends on the person but you never take them all at once! call & ask to speak with your doctor immediately. if he is busy ask the nurse or who ever answered the phone so they can find out. if you are uncomfortable or scared, call a pharmacy and ask to speak with a pharmacist & explain how many you took & the time period. then you will know what to do next.

    if you're going through a hard time then you will need to find a counselor at school or work which you can speak with confidentially & in private. they will know how to help & it will also take a load off of your back to speak with someone. remember, their services are free & confidential!
