Brief Answer:
She will feel sleepy and will have gastritis.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Avil is having chlorpheniramine. It is antihistamine drug. Levocetrizine is also antihistamine (newer) drug.
Avil causes sedation. Levocetrizine causes lesser degree of sedation.
So your friend will develop excessive sleepiness a side effect of over dose.
Other common side effect is gastritis.
So she will not die but will develop excessive sedation, sleepiness, gastritis etc.
No need to worry for life threatening side effects.
But better to avoid such incidence in future.
Is it suicidal attempt?

Wishing good health to your friend.
