Hi XXXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. COMBIFLAM contains ibuprofen 400 mg, paracetamol 325 mg.
2. Taking 15 tablets will amount to 6000 mg ibuprofen and 4875 mg paracetamol.
3. Please go to your nearest hospital for emergency treatment before all the medication gets in to your system.
4. In the hospital oral administration of activated charcoal or stomach wash is indicated if the patient presents within 1 hour of ingestion of the tablets.
5. If not treated, it can cause liver damage due to paracetamol overdose. It can also cause convulsions, headache and gastrointestinal bleeding due to ibuprofen overdose.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
