Does An Overdose Of Ecosprin Cause Any Adverse Side Effects?

Hi, can I ask you a question I am so worried about my father. He is on a 1 dose of ecosprin 150 and 1 dose of levipil 500 a day. But he mistakenly took 2 doses of each in one day and I think it was about one hour apart. He thought he didn t take them but he ended up taking two doses of each. Is there any danger of this? What should I do now.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Taking one more dose extra of the medications mentioned should not cause much problems. However, Levipil tablet is an anti-convulsant that is used to control seizures. Kindly be watchful for the overdose side effects like mood and behavioral changes, excessive tiredness and sleepiness. If it is bothersome, then you need to seek medical attention. Ecosprin is composed of aspirin. Overdose could cause bleeding tendencies. Kindly be watchful for easy bruising of skin. If noticed, then you need to seek medical attention promptly.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
