Been taking 4.8 daily for over a year (Mezavant) and tonight by mistake took 6 pills (7.2g).

Its late here and feeling a bit nervous about that. Am I doomed?

Was going to do the usual 4g Salofalk enema but given the circumstances, gonna skip that..

No worries. 1 time extra isn't going to hurt you.

Good idea to not take the enema...but you'll be OK.
