Brief Answer:
surgery is the treatment of choice

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes you can take 2 tablets stat but in case it doesn't stop even with that dose then you should visit your gynecologist so that she can plan to prepone your surgery if possible.
Any symptomatic fibroid should be removed as it will only worsen eventually as you are in reproductive age group.
In case you want surgery at scheduled date only then you can ask for hormone therapy as your bleeding is not going to respond to these drugs in future.
In case you have other questions you can contact me directly on http://bit.ly/drmanishajain

Brief Answer:
2grams per day

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, maximum dose per day in your case is is 2 grams.
But in case it doesn't respond in this dose you should visit your gynecologist because it is your third day of cycle when flow generally decreases to a significant amount.
Wish you good health.
