Can you take to much iburofen?

Yes you can. Ibuprofen can be very irritating to the lining of the stomach. If taken in large amounts or for a very long time it is possible to develop bleeding in the stomach. The symptoms of overdose can include nausea, abdominal pain and vomiting, dizziness and, rarely, loss of consciousness. Clinical features of overdose with ibuprofen which may result are depression of the central nervous system and the respiratory system.There is no specific antidote to ibuprofen overdose. The maximum daily dosage of ibuprofen is usually 1,200mg to 1,600mg in three or four divided doses. The maximum single dose is usually 400mg at one time. For some patients already on the drug (most commonly those with arthritis) who experience a worsening of their condition, the maximum daily dose can sometimes be increased to 2,400mg but only for a brief period of time before reverting to 1,600mg. Because ibuprofen can be irritating to the stomach, it is important to swallow the tablets with a full glass of water and preferrably after food.

Can you take Tylenol and Midol together?

Yes, but only if the Midol product that you've chosen does not have ibuprofen in it. There are several formulations of Midol, and I know at least one of them has it in it! Read the back of the packaging...if it says ibuprofen, don't take extra ibuprofen with it. If it says acetaminophen (as well as other ingredients that are NOT ibuprofen), you can go ahead and take it with ibuprofen.
