Is 10 year old man eats Brufen 400 tablet instead of brufen 200 then what will be the sight effect?

Not much if any. Unlike Tylenol (which is toxic to the liver), ibuprofen will not hurt even when double dosed. It can cause a tummy ache, because anti inflammatories are hard on the stomach. As an ER nurse, we would get a patient who took 20 ibuprofen at a time as a suicide measure. We usually didn't treat at all, except for psychiatrically. Long term "abuse" of ibuprofen can cause kidney damage. If it is a one time accident, you are fine. Tums or even a meal with milk will help with tummy pain if it happens.
