I took 4 tablets containing paracetamol 300g, caffeine 25mg and phenylephrine hydrochloride 5mg. I took these tablets within a 1 hour period and the recommended dosage was 2 every 4-6 hours! I'm 15 and i'm really scared! Will i die?? I had stomach ache last night but it's okay now and now i just have heavy breathing problems!
