Answer 1

It might get rid of a headache, make you sick,or nothing. It also depends on the milligram of the pills.

Answer 2

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. Symptoms of an ibuprofen overdose may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, drowsiness, black or bloody stools, coughing up blood, shallow breathing, fainting, or coma. It can also do damage to your organs, like your liver.While in some cases it has been reported that it has result in a permanent liver damage, in other cases where the victim was taking the dose for a long and continued period it has resulted in organ failure one by one.

Answer 3

probably eat your stomach away, damage your liver and could poisen you ...that wasnt very smart thing to do...they put directions on the back label for a reason  i quote "Do not take more of this medication than is recommended. An overdose of ibuprofen can cause damage to your stomach or intestines. The maximum amount of ibuprofen for adults is 800 milligrams per dose or 3200 mg per day (4 maximum doses). Use only the smallest amount of this medication needed to get relief from your pain, swelling, or fever. Avoid taking ibuprofen if you are taking aspirin to prevent stroke or heart attack. Ibuprofen can make aspirin less effective in protecting your heart and blood vessels. If you must use both medications, take the ibuprofen at least 8 hours before or 30 minutes after you take the aspirin (non-enteric coated form). Do not drink alcohol while taking this medication. Alcohol can increase your risk of stomach bleeding caused by ibuprofen.

Answer 4

All at once? Possible overdose...not smart.

Answer 5

be careful

ibprofen is an addictive substance

Answer 6

um..... stomach bleeding. sorry.

Answer 7

If it was over the counter stuff (not prescription) then you will probably be okay, I have taken like 12 or even more at once of the over the counter stuff.

HOWEVER...you shouldn't take it on an empty stomach. Take Ibuprofen with food or milk. If you took it on an empty stomach, start eating stuff NOW or drinking a lot of milk. Ibuprofen will burn holes in your stomach if you don't.

And just because you will be okay this time, doesn't mean that you should do that stuff again. You really should never take more than 800mg (4 normal over the counter pills) in a 24-hr period unless a doctor says you can.

Answer 8

What was the mg? If it was 200 each call the doctor thats 2000 mg of ibuprofen and I think 800 is the adult dosage. Are you nuts why would you take that much of a pill. If you have pain that bad take vicodin.
