Hello! Welcome to Ask a Doctor service! Regarding your concern, I would explain that this situation could be related to a temporary brain dysfunction due to Advil overdose. For this reason, I would recommend taking plenty of fluids and active carbon to help push away Advil from her body. I am sure that her situation will improve soon. An EEG would help examine her brain function. Hope to have been helpful! Wishing all the best,
