  • I am not sure if they are water, or saline or a prescription but in any case, why would anyone drink them? If it was cleaning solution with saline that is not dangerous. If it has happened I would call poison control
  • Yes they do, if you want to drug someone (plz dont) use eye drops... Its effective.. (DONT DO IT)
  • Certain types of eyedrops (not saline) can cause diarrhea. Tetrahydrozoline is the chemical that makes this happen. Kids back in high school would put a squirt of Visine into a teacher's drink for a few laughs. Some studies have ruled it as just an urban legend, but Tetrahydrozoline and other vasoconstrictor/vasodilator drugs, when ingested, can irritate the body's system... which does cause the diarrhea. Usually, the effects only go that far... but there can be issues when it counteracts with some medications particularly blood/heart prescriptions. Tetrahydrozoline raises blood pressure.
  • I hope you are not thinking of using eyedrops to "get back" at someone. Hopefully someone has not done this to you. The reason I am saying this, is because my son's ex girlfriend thought she would get revenge on my son for dumping her. She laced our pizza with visine. No one got hurt because she used it on our pizza in a small amount, but I and my son and my boyfriend ate the pizza before we were told. She bragged to a co-worker and the guy had bought the visine for her. He thought it was going to be used in her eyes not the pizza. He had enough sense to call the other manager. My son's ex girlfriend/room mate, was the night manager. For what it is worth, she is sitting in jail for adulterating food/drinks with a harmful substance and I am looking into any more legal action that I can take against her or her place of work. She openly admitted to the charge to the police officer. If it was not for the driver, we would never have known. She would still be inter-acting with my son on a "friendly" level. SHE definately needs some sort of help because we could have gave the pizza to children of a friend. Also, our dogs were eating the pizza. It could have been worse.
  • I just don't understand why people are like this, but I believe that this was done to me today, or some sort of laxitive that can not be tasted in a soft drink. This was done by a co worker, that behaives as if they were in grade school, and to top it off they are also the owner of the business. How sad is that? I have had horrible cramps and diarrhea as I only have after I have had to take a laxative.
  • Yes, it makes you very very ill. Not diahrrea though. It can cause severe vomiting, heart arrythmia, blurred vision, and can cause nervous system problems. If you think that putting eyedrops into someones food or drink thinking you are going to give them just the "trots", you are sadly mistaken! It can land someone in the hospital or possibly give them long term issues! If you read the indications on the eye drops, it doesnt say to go see a doctor if you ingest it for nothing. It is a very serious POISION!! Its not funny at all, and if you are so petty to do this to a person, maybe you should take therapy for your anger issues. So to answer the question, yes, yes it can make you sick.
  • no one answered this person's question remotely close, except for "jt007m", of which i thank you "jt007m" for this information. the lady complaining about her son's ex from their pizza incident: seriously, take your problems elsewhere. this is a place to receive answers to good questions, not a story 'bout your life's situations. it's "answerbag.com", not gossip talk 'cause you're bored with your own life or want sympathy from people whom you don't even know, just so you may feel better. go gab at the nail salon or to your starbuck's barista. come on society, just use 10% more of your brain!!
    • Linda Joy
      I liked her answer! Much better than yours by the way! At least she was honest about what can happen to somebody who pulls this kind of crap on someone and who are you to say what we want to see on answerbag?
  • My friend during april fools last year tried the visine trick on me to make me "poop" all night but after putting a few drops in my beers he noticed that it was working and nothing was happening he decided to use the whole bottle of visine and mix them with my beers. The only thing I felt during the night was a burning sensation in my stomach like if I had heart burns but that was it. The only way I knew of this is because he decided to tell me the next day that he used a whole bottle of visine on my drinks and asked me if anything happened. But besides that I been OK!
  • You are very lucky that worse didn't happen. The active ingredient in Visine can cause the following: *lowering body temperature to a dangerous level *halting breathing or making it very difficult *blurred vision *nausea or vomiting *elevating and then dropping blood pressure *seizures or tremors *coma If you ingest Visine, you have been poisoned. Seek immediate medical help.
  • YOU CAN DIE FROM THAT YOU IDIOT!
  • i dont think they work cause i put some in my moms boy friends drink n all it did was give him the poops lol i was hoping for more like puken his brains out
  • this is not funny to do... im in the middle of getting in trouble for being a witness to someone who did this its attempt of murder and im in trouble for watching!!! just never do this to someone the guy who they did it to hasn't had anything serious happen yet!!!!! i hope he will be okay!!!
  • The theory is that it makes a person empty his bowels immediately.
