Do not excede stated dosage

davywavyWoke up with a migraine this morning. I've never done that before, and let me tell you it makes the never-pleasurable task of waking up on a work day into the real chore. In an attempt to see it off I guzzled 3 aspirin (recommended dosage 1-3 tablets for adults) and set off for work.
The aspirin had no noticable effect and the headache got worse to the extent that I was actually physically sick from the pain, and so in desperation I blagged another painkiller from one of my colleagues.
The fourth aspirin was the killer - within half-an-hour I was light-headed and felt faint. However, the pain had mostly gone.
Todays lesson is: if you take the stated dosage, it won't help. if you take more, you run the risk of passing out. Great.
