Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Bach's rescue remedy contains small amounts of flower material in a 50:50 solution of brandy and water. There is no scientific evidence for its efficacy and in fact, multiple systematic clinical trials have proven them to be no more effective than a placebo. Since you have had excessive amounts of this tonic, it is possible that you could have had a stomach irritation due to the substances in it or the alcohol in it. Please see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
Wish you all the best.
