    Well, it all depends. Advil PM is not a drug for suicide really. Even in huge doses. A person might fall asleep for awhile, or if it upset their stomach they would barf it all up and be really sick to their stomach. A VERY small percentage of people who try to kill themselves using MUCH stronger pills are even successful.

    They usually end up sick at home, or at a hospital getting their stomach pumped (not fun at all!) or sometimes they hurt their brains and are alive for a long time (in beds or a wheelchair often) and have to be fed and taken care of like they were a baby, for years by parents, friends, or nurses. It's not a fun way to live I am sure.

    Pills are not a good way at all to commit suicide if anyone really wants to be at all successful. Hope this helps you with your story.

    The person will get very sick and need to be rushed to the hospital. Death is always a possibility.
