Hypothetically would it hurt to take 4 ibuprofens at once?

My wrist is really hurting tonight like I’m fully in tears about it and I’m trying to work

Saw this online:

How much ibuprofen can I take in a 24 hour period?
OTC ibuprofen dosages

Take 1 tablet or capsule (200 mg) by mouth every 4 to 6 hours as needed. You can take 2 pills (400 mg) per dose if pain or fever doesn't improve with 1 tablet. The maximum recommended dosage of OTC ibuprofen is 6 pills (1,200 mg) in 24 hours unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional.

@TravisTx yeah @Degbeme commented the same and I’m out of my allowed amount I guess so I’ll have to just deal with it

@MommaBear it does say unless otherwise directed by your healthcare professional. Maybe an after hours call to your provider? Hope you’re feeling better soon.
