How do you overdose?

In: Drug Safety [Edit categories]

Answer:

Overdose occurs when you take too much of a medication. This medication then interferes with a natural body process such as breathing, circulation, filtering, etc and harms your body. If you think you have overdosed, contact a Poison Control number (in the US, 1-800-222-1222) or go to a hospital immediately.
