She puked already, I'm not with her right now but her head hurts now. PLEASE give me advice if you can. Don't say that it was stupid, she's still conscious whatever but yeah. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Regardless of whether or not your friend is suffering from congestion at the moment, drinking a whole bottle of Tussin DM could cause serious complications. I would strongly advise you to ring the ambulance from your home and then drive yourself to her home to be by her side. Additionally, if she is congested at the moment and is taking some other form of medication for this, ingesting a whole bottle of Tussin DM could literally become life-threatening.

Additionally, throwing up may make the problem worse - some substances stay in the system despite the throwing up, and depending on the effect the Tussin DM has had on your friend's internal organs and blood stream, it would not be advisable that she throw it back up.
