It depends on the amount that is combined. Large amounts of it could cause severe organ damage and/or a fatal overdose.

However, a normal dose will usually just result in upset stomach, headache, vomiting and stomach irritation. You may also get really drowsy and dizzy.

In general, they really shouldn't be combined, because you are combining medications that all do the same things, so it isn't necessary.

The Excedrin PM contains Acetaminophen and Diphenhydramine:

and the Aleve contains Naproxen:

Also, combining them regularly can result in organ damage, or stomach conditions such as ulcers and gastritis.

Have you been combining them?
