Whether unintentional or deliberate, such incidents can disrupt vital bodily processes and may lead to severe health consequences. Recognizing the symptoms of drug poisoning can be critical for prompt treatment. Common signs include nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, confusion, seizures, trouble breathing, and an irregular heartbeat. The treatment for drug poisoning varies depending on the specific drug and the amount ingested. Interventions may include the administration of activated charcoal, antidotes, supportive care such as breathing assistance, fluid therapy, and close monitoring in a hospital setting.
