Detailed Answer:
Dear

Thanks for posting your query.

You must take her to the doctor.

She has taken tablets outside the safe prescribed limit and this can very hazardous to her.

There could be effect on her kidney or G.I.system. Though time has passed still something can be done.

Do not waste time take her to hospital. There are antidotes that can be taken at the hospital, otherwise your friend is in grave danger.

Wishing her speedy recovery.
