Answer 1

It destroys your liver and kidneys. Poisoning is a terrible way to die. Its not as quick or easy as people think.  

Answer 2

Whenever I've attempted suicide that is the way I go. It's a bad way to do it because you need figure out the lethal dosage. Also you can start seizing, vomiting....and if you are found in time, you have to drink charcoal or have your stomach pumped. It can also cause heart or liver damage. None of it is pleasant.

Answer 3

you are very likely to vomit enough of the meds up so you won't die, just be in pain in your stomach and probably the rest of your body from introducing such a high level of a chemical into your system.
