How much Ibuprofen, is too much Ibuprofen?

[chewyxrage]

Haven't seen a doc. I know its stupid but I'm afraid of what they'll say. My shits fucked up, I just know it.

Don't be stupid bro. You need to take of this now. What do you gain by waiting? A bunch of bullshit you could have avoided.

At the very least you'll get peace of mind knowing wtf is up with yourself.

Ibuprofen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ibuprofen overdose has become common since it was licensed for over-the-counter use. There are many overdose experiences reported in the medical literature, although the frequency of life-threatening complications from ibuprofen overdose is low.[20] Human response in cases of overdose ranges from absence of symptoms to fatal outcome in spite of intensive care treatment. Most symptoms are an excess of the pharmacological action of ibuprofen and include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, dizziness, headache, tinnitus, and nystagmus. Rarely more severe symptoms such as gastrointestinal bleeding, seizures, metabolic acidosis, hyperkalaemia, hypotension, bradycardia, tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, coma, hepatic dysfunction, acute renal failure, cyanosis, respiratory depression, and cardiac arrest have been reported

There is little correlation between severity of symptoms and measured ibuprofen plasma levels. Toxic effects are unlikely at doses below 100 mg/kg but can be severe above 400 mg/kg;[22] however, large doses do not indicate that the clinical course is likely to be lethal.[23] It is not possible to determine a precise lethal dose, as this may vary with age, weight, and concomitant diseases of the individual patient.

So if you weigh about 200lb - 90kg, then toxic effects are unlikely at doses below 9000mg - 9 grams.

You would have to take 45 200mg tablets before toxic effects would start.

I think max daily dose is 1200 mg's, though not sure.
If you are eating them "like skittles" than I think you would be better off getting checked. I know about the migraines, they suck. Better to make sure it is something simple and nothing severe before it is too late!
As for too much Ibuprofen (NSAID) it is not a good thing to be doing daily. You can end up with severe stomach and/or intestinal ulcers that are not fun, not to mention the fact that too much of them cause you to retain salt and water. It also can cause hypertension which is not good as hypertension may cause headaches, which kinda will become a game of headache-med-headache-med..Kinda defeats the purpose?

Other than that you are not going to die from taking too much. Most common mishap is the ulcers, many people get them from over use of nsaids. They are a bitch and also bring along nice heartburn. Though if ignored these nasty ulcers can become a pain in the ass.

Go to the Dr's and stop eating so many ibup's!!!!!!!

Between 600-800mg at a pop. 1200-1600mg per day sometimes more.

retard.

Currently 178lbs. I'm currently in my all time worst shape.

Max recommended under any situation is up to 3200mg/day. Really no reason to go over 400-600mg qid (4x's/day) though. I suggest also that you go see a doctor asap about your HA's.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say you can't die from too much ibuprofen. People have reported renal injury which can be very uncomfortable at best and possibly could lead to renal failure at worst.

Not something you'd want to continue to use over a long period of time. Go to the doctor foolio.

Stupid ass plat member!

How do you think we can possibly answer that question without any background information?

How long have you been training, what's your height, what's your bf percentage, how big is your willy...

You know the drill.

Dumb as nOOb

Athletes eat Ibuprofen like it's going out of style.

I know it's not your saying but what a stupid ass sayin it is...

I mean its the law of economics 101: supply and demand...

The more someone uses something, the more is needed and therefore produced so it wont go out of fashion/stock while it is being used.... which ever idiot came up with such a stupid sayin was a nOOb as nOOb
