The dose of ibuprofen is normally three to four times a day. So two tablets in less than 24 hours should do no damage to you in normal course. some patients get rash all over the body due to ibuprofen. Few others get spasm of the bronchial tree. They should not take the ibuprofen tablets.

If you mean over-the-counter, two in one day is well within normal limits. If it is a prescription dosage, it depends on how your doctor wrote the script. But generally speaking, 2 in one day (24 hours) will not cause harm.

How many hours can you take ibuprofin after you've taken excedrin?

Excedrin is a brand name of OTC (over the counter) pain reliever that contains Ibuprofen and caffeine (used as an enhancer for the drug) because Ibuprofen can be hard on the liver it is recommended that you wait 6-8 hours between doses, where as Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be taken every 3-4 hours, it can also be taken in between doses of Ibuprofen. Of course it is important to mention that even OTC drugs have the potential to be harmful if taken improperly and you may want to consult a Doctor.
