Don’t most people usually throw up if they take too many drugs at once like in a suicide attempt? I believe they convulse and barf, is that is?

do they throw up? Depends on the drugs, and if you take them all at once or a couple at a time.

Overdoses are common, but most fatal ones are from several sedative/narcotic/alcohol slowly putting a person to sleep.

The sad overdoses of tylenol are usually due to liver failure that doesn’t start for a couple of days, and there is an antidote if they come in and tell you about it. Aspirin overdoses usually cause folks to throw up.

Since narcotics are not over the counter, the scenerio made me wonder...
