Avatar f tn My family received a final decision on my sisters overdose. Her cause of death was suicide. Why would the corner rule that as she was found hovering over the tolilet trying to trow up all her Roxie's. She was on an all night drinking binge and mixing xanaxes oxies and who knows what else. It's another reminder of addictions ending. This news makes me feel overwhelming sad. Sometimes I feel so lonely now. It's a raw emotion.
Avatar f tn Because users tend sniff inhalants repeatedly in a session, they risk a serious and possibly fatal overdose. Overdose can result in extreme confusion, blackout, coma and convulsions. An overdose can also cause an erratic and accelerated heart beat, which can lead to heart failure and death. Some people seem susceptible to these cardiac effects after low doses of inhalants, and there have been a number of tragic first time user deaths.

Avatar f tn t seem to fine anywhere how long after a lethal amount or a small overdose (such as 1 accidental extra dose) on top of toxicity symptoms would start to show or when death would take place. So my question is when would symptoms begin to show and when would death occur. I don't need exact times but if toxicity showed hours after an over dose and death came days after it would give me a timeline which is all I'm looking for. Thank you.

Avatar f tn Early treatment after an overdose with acetaminophen is important. If the overdose was recent, activated charcoal may be given to prevent the body from absorbing the drug. A medication called N-acetylcysteine (Acetadote®, Mucomyst®) is extremely important for the treatment of an overdose and can help prevent liver damage. Treatment will also include supportive care, which consists of treating the symptoms that occur as a result of the overdose. Sometimes, liver transplantation is necessary.
1139187 tn?1355706647 I think Bruce meant in response to when I pointed out people do it deliberately sometimes, overdose to the point of death, not that it would kill people! I think Bruce misunderstood what it meant by overdose originally. I wish we could get it here in the Land of Oz. I for one, NEED something dramatically different. Pee'd off with our choices, which are made by the same company and are exactly the same. Generic or brand name, makes no difference, same pill, different packet!
Avatar f tn I agree one extra pill should not cause an overdose. I discovered a while back that I had missed my day's dose of 3 pills (it was after a cardioversion and I was a little fuzzy) and I checked my INR and it was under the recommended range. I took an extra pill over a week's time and stopped eating vitamin k veggies for a few days and got back to normal. If you have a true overdose Vitamin K and/or plasma will reverse the drug, not so with the newer blood thinners -- no antidote.
