ODing on Advil?

[waterrrrrrrrrbottel]

Is it possible to overdose on Advil? I know the side effects of having too much, but is there a chance it can kill you?

From my understanding, any OTC meds has the possibility to terminate you, but it would take mass dosages/ mix meds and even then you'll suffer severe side effects before succumbing to sweet sleep in the end. Its really not worth it.

Technically you can overdose on anything but in the context I assume you're suggesting it's not a good idea. Will make you painfully ill. Possibility chronically (forever).

Posted at the same time I guess.
FWIW worth, when I said you can overdose on anything, what I meant is you can consume too much of anything. The word overdose doesn't equal death as the common view tends to see it. It just means you exceeded the theraputic dose or recommended amount. It's a kind of common misconception. Probably sounds like semantics and it is to some extent but it's true. Overdose is too much - an over dosing. Most overdoses don't lead to death. Often nothing. Other times a lot of suffering.

I think you'll just end up vomiting it all up one way or the other. Even when you pass out.

The answer is NO. I know a person that tried this several times. They died a couple years layer but from the organ damage due to the attempts.

All my questions warrant a "bruh", I know.

Thank you.

Would be very painful and you'll probably regret it in the process

Death by painkiller overdose is an extremely cliche suicide method and I've read countless stories of it failing. I don't even think I've read a single story where it worked. Not to be mean but I feel like the people who attempt painkiller overdose are quite naive when it comes to suicide and not serious about it.
