Have you ever had a bad reaction to an OTC (over the counter) medication?

I had the worst headache last night but had previously made dinner plans with a couple that I have been friends with for years...It was the strangest thing ,as the night went on I started feeling really "funny."

Well to make a long story short I woke up this morning with my friends husband next to me in bed...Do you think she'll understand that I had a total adverse reaction to the Advil I took before dinner?

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Opinions?

    I'm coming to Florida next week, I hope you remembered to write down EXACTLY what it is you took, did you? I thought I was having a reaction once but I wasn't so I mixed in a few more OTC pain meds and three different alergy/sinus capsules and that got the reaction I was looking for! I'll never forget that Mexican family that taught me how to make tortillas under the bridge that night! They were awesome! I almost took the lady as my wife so they could stay in the country.

    I am not following your stipulation here and I would like to explain about the OTC products. Those insecticides or medications are ones that do not require a veterinarian prescription so anybody can produce them, not a pharmacist. They are items that vets have found to be ineffective or dangerous for use on animals. I think this may be particularly true of wormers -- because there are three types of worms that cats get and the particular worm has its own effective and safe treatment. If you use an OTC pill you may not be getting at the right worm. And you are putting poison into your cat's body. Also people tend to think that more is better when it comes to flea treatment and don't wait for the medicine to take effect. So they overdose there too. Much to the detriment of many cats and kittens who can be damaged neurologically by too much.

    I think you may have had an adverse reaction to whatever else you ingested.
