[quote=Anonymous]Agree it completely depends on the drug. You can overdose on just about anything, and even the doctors really experienced doctors can't make a truly informed prognosis if it's not one of the usual overdose drugs. I had a family member do it with a psych drug, and the really experienced hospital people had to be in constant communication with Poison Control on protocol every step of the way because they'd never handled an overdose of that particular medication. We were fortunate to get medical help right after the pills were taken, but it was very touch and go in the ER. The person didn't become unconscious but had to be put into a medically induced coma for a day. There was full recovery. As attorney for the patient, I would think you would be able to visit and get some information about the prognosis. Have you gotten in touch with her family?[/quote]
