So much this. I rarely take pain relievers, but this morning I had a crushing headache after a night of concerts, loud clubs downtown, and of course, copious amounts of alcohol. I took 4 Advil, and drank a full nalgene full of water. Felt better within like 30 minutes. The thing with recommended doses, is they are the safest dose for the entire population. The adult age is anyone TWELVE and old. I'm 31, 6'3", and 180 lbs... I'm not built like a twelve year old, so I think I can handle 4 advil a couple times a year. :)But if you have a mind-crusher (or any other painful injury), it's totally safe to take more than the recommended dose.
