If you take more than 6 advils in 24hrs will it put you to sleep or cause a drug overdose or something?

Im exhausted and have a really bad headache which has been making it hard to sleep and i still cant breath because im just getting over a sinus infection but still taking antibiotics. My parents wont let me take sleeping pills. I take anywhere from 4-6 advils a day plus the antibiotics(amoxicilin 500mg) and my allergy meds(24hr Claritin D) is there a safe way to combine any of these with cold medicine or something of the sort to knock me out so i can get some sleep rather than send me to the ER to get my stomach pumped?

    Read the pill bottles and the information you received when you got the amoxicilian and there should be information regarding what is and is not safe to take together

    Taking too much ibuprofen is really bad for your stomach and liver, I've heard. It won't make you go to sleep. It is an anti-inflammatory and pain reliever only. No buzz.

    Doesn't Claritin make you really wide awake?

    Nyquil will make you sleep, unless they changed the formula.

    Some Benadryl makes me super sleepy. I mixed a half and half mixture of Nyquil and orange juice one time, and that knocked me out, too.
