Hello

After going The medical query raised by you I can understand your concern and I would like to tell you that the XXXXXXX recommended dose for this medication is up to 400mg, so don’t worry as you have not taken any overdose.

However you need to be a little cautious and avoid indulging yourself from doing any heavy work or driving a vehicle for next 24 hrs and keep an eye on your blood pressure and pulse rate.
