Pill overdose and facts?????????

Question

im trying to help my brother with his paper for his health class, but we have searched pretty much EVERYWHERE on the internet for info on overdose and general knowledge on pills and cant find the best information. so we are hoping a doctor or someone who knows about this stuff can answer his questions.

What is the number one used pain killer used by Americans?

By overdosing on any sort of pill, generally how long does it take til death occurs?

What are the effects afterwards if a woman overdoses on one a day womens vitamins?

If many pills are combined together in an overdose (for example: vitamins, ibuprofen, aspirin,), how long does it take until death occurs?

What is the most recommened vitamin for people to take in the U.S. for good health?

Answer 1

1 pain killer I have to guess and say aspirin.

Death from overdose depends on what it is. A cyanide pill will kills almost instantly. Other pills will kill by damaging the liver,kidneys and or other organs. So that always depends.

If a woman overdoses on one a day vitamins it damages the liver from the Vitamin A,D and from the minerals. So if it was an extreme amount maybe she could die quickly,but it can also be over many year from liver and kidney damage.

Combination just does more damage it's like a lab experiment and nobody can be sure.

the single most recommended vitamin is Vitamin C,but many more are needed.

Be safe and don't play games with your body or anyone else's testing overdoses. I have to say that because I don't know you.
