“Too many Advils?”
My friend had taken too many Advil by accident they weren’t paying attention and usually, they take doses of 800 mg(4 Advil’s) 3 times a day. But they accidentally took 5 on one dose. Now their stomach hurts occasionally and they felt nauseous after a protein shake. This was all two days ago. Could these symptoms be related?

Hello,
It could be related to the extra Advil taken as the extra two may have irritated the lining of the stomach. If that did happen, it will take several days for it to recover. While recovering nausea and pain could be some symptoms. If this persists beyond 4 days, I recommend reaching out to a care provider to review your full history and see if there may be something else causing the issue.
