Suggest Medication For Headache Due To Intake Of Crystal Meth

i was using crystal meth yesterday and went to work and had an awful headache so decided to take 2 extra strength Excedrin's. About an hour later I sat at work trying to catch my breath it felt like my heart was jumping out of my chest. When i got home my arm went numb and i hyperventilated. Now was this because I mixed the 2 and too much speed due to excedrine caffeine or what?

Hi,

Both Excedrin and Meth are stimulants and that is why, you had racing heart beat and other symptoms. Please avoid combining the two again in future. For now, the symptoms should be gone in a couple of days. Till then, avoid taking any kind of stimulants.

Best wishes.
