How Can Abdominal Bloating And Pain Be Treated?

Tripled my fiber supplement by accident this morning and ate high fiber cereal before realizing. I have become increasingly bloated, nauseas and painful throughout day. I’ve been drinking water. Took a dose of Mylanta within last hour which has given no relief. I do have a muscle relaxant but not sure if it would slow this whole process down. I am very painful. Thank you.
