Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

* The body physiology manages to excrete the drug content in terms of time variation as 1-2 hours, that is not considered as drug overdose. So as per my clinical experience, the issue is not to be of panic, just relax and take care next time.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
