Short Bio

I am 75 and was diagnosed with IPF 3 months ago. I have been taking 1 150 ml pill in the morning and evening for the last week and a half with excess gas being the main side effect.  Tonight I accidentally took 2 pills about 10 min apart one hour ago.   I have been trying all the given emergency numbers to see if there will be a problem but no one answers……..   Am I in danger?     Please respond.   I tried throwing up with a raw  egg but it did not work.
