How To Treat Excedrine Mediated Dizzy And Stomach Pain?
i accidentally took 2 Excedrine Migraine capsules, with 400 mg of ibuprofen, and 30 mg of the real sudafed that i had to sign for with the pharmacist. i thought the migraine pills were basic acetamenophine tabs. this all happened last night at 11 pm. After about 20 minutes i felt extremely dizzy, but decided to just go to bed. during the night i woke repeatedly if i moved it felt like the room moved too. it s now 7:30 pm the next evening, and i still feel like the room is spinning so much so that i ve had to sleep or sit still all day. earlier today, my upper stomach hurt. i do feel nauseous now and them but have not vomited. what can i do?

Hello,
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
