10 advil is counted as an over dose. If you have taken this much, please go see a doctor as soon as possible, even if you feel like you are ok. If you plan on taking this much, please rethink. You may want strong pain relief but overdosing on it isn't helpful.

It can cause damage to internal organs, blurred vision and vomiting.

I think you should go see a doctor. Symptoms of 10 Advil overdose may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, dizziness, blurred vision, sweating, breathing problems, or seizure (convulsions). Avoid overdose!

This depends on one particular factor. Over how long? Over a 24 hour period? Whilst doing this would not cause a great deal of issues. I'd still strongly suggest that you would go to your doctor. This is still considered an overdose.

I'd suggest a doctor since you did experience a symptom of an overdose. Generally I would say it would not usually cause any immediate effects, but it definitely still harms your stomach and organs.

If you really don't want to go to the doctor's, then I just suggest drinking lots of water. This can help with any irritation in your stomach. Keep an eye out for anymore blurry spells or dizziness, nausea, etc.


So you have gray hair and you're only 26

that's just another reason I love you...

An additional thought, it can cause stomach ulcers, so I wouldn't suggest doing that again.
