A big dose but yet safe one.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
You have taken a big dose in total but yet it is a safe dose.
You may need to take them every 4-6 hours .
You can combine the T3 and ibuprofen as recommend by doctor or take them separately.
Most probably you will not experience symptoms at all or feel a bit sleepiness or drowsiness , nausea , vomiting or abdominal pain.
There is no need to do anything or to take any treatment .
You will feel the pain relieving soon and it is not much risky.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
