You should go to ER.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
The dosages you have taken are usually not toxic.
However there can be individual variations and body's response to the drugs.
You can get into excessive sedation , drowsiness that can complicate the situation.
So see your doctors. Let them evaluate you and if required would perform gastric lavage. They would check your vitals and keep you under observation.
I hope it helps you.
I wish you a Healthy and happy life.
