Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
Vetprofen is a NSAID and one tablet should not cause any harm in you. In fact it has been used previously in humans and was deemed as a safe drug.
Keeping in view your age I will recommend that you visit your healthcare provider. He may take appropriate steps to induce vomiting if needed. Vomiting can only be induced within 2-4 hours of ingestion.
Hope it helps.
