Could Overdose Of Ibuprofen Cause Extreme Pain In Abdomen?
I took an overdose of ibuprofen a few days ago, i was in hospital and they kept me overnight and said bloods were ok. But now i have extreme pains in my stomach area. But not sure if it is my stomach or something else. Could there be damage that they did not see?

Hi. High doses of Ibuprofen or any other such medicines can cause many problems concerning the abdomen. It can be a simple stomach upset to ulcer formation in stomach. This can be ruled out by endoscopy only.
