7 ibuprofens at once please help! im scared what will happen?

[Anonymous]

so i accidently took 7 i forgot that i already took 4 a few minutes prior and not thinking i took 3 more. each 200 mg. I ended up having a big migraine. and my kidneys kinda hurt. i've also haven't been drinking as much fluids so I don't know if my pain is because of that or the overdosage. i heard it could shut my liver down and kidneys and im scared. what will happen?

Not to scare you but an over dose of ibuprofen is how my grandma almost died. She didn't remember that she took one then went to take another and then couldn't remember so she took another...
If my aunt wouldn't have found her she would have died.

You should call poison control as soon as possible. They wil let you know if you need to go to the emergency room or not And you really need to take fluids

Unless you are dying from liver failure before you took the pills you are fine.

If it was damaging your liver or kidneys you would have other symptoms before you feel any pain. However I will not tell you what they are because you will do what you are doing now and start thinking yourself sick.

Also your kidneys getting damaged would be secondary to liver damage.

I tend to take two 500mg acetaminophen every now and then for migraines and muscle soreness. It isn't a danger.

The migraine and side pain are both brought on my a combination of stress caused by panic and the placebo effect.

Sorry, I dont know what that is. You can see a doctor and ask him/her what to do, you'll get professional advice from him/her instead of advice from this site.
Good luck with it!

(if you need more advice, comment it)

I would go to the hospital and stay there 12 hours under their check
