Answer 1

just relax. You will be fine

you should be fine ,take it easy

Answer 3

two in one day is OK if you have a bad allergic reaction, so you should be fine. Better set up one time of day for you to take them, I always take mine last thing at night, as part of my bedtime ritual.

Answer 4

Answer 9

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine.

Overdose symptoms may include headache, drowsiness, and fast or pounding heartbeat.

Answer 10

You may have some crazy dreams!  I took just one and the first night I took it, I had some weird vivid dreams.

If I were you, I would call a pharmacist or doctor if they are available.  If not I would call the poison control and ask them.  1-800-222-1222.

Answer 11

funny you would be asking for an answer to this on an alternitive site! why not assk a doctor or your local drug pusher Walgreens!

Answer 12

Don't worry. I have done that by accident also. You see, I have LOTS of allergies. So, it really didn't do anything accept make me dizzy and a little natious. If you have a lot of allergies, it will probably do the same. If not, you may want to look on some helpful heath websites. Or call your doctor. If no strange symptoms such as seeing things, and hearing things occur in the next 20 minutes. You will be fine. You might throw it up. But you'll be fine. (: Hope this helps.
