How To Detoxify Body After Excess Intake Of Sleepasil?

Hi. My girlfriend took 6 sleeping pills (sleepasil) while Im sleeping. I realized and made her vomit. She vomited twice... And went to sleep. Is there anything I can do? Will it still cause harm? I can still talk to her and making her comfortable. She slept for 4 hours now. If I let her sleep more will it make it better? As of now she can barely move

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If she took these with the intent to harm herself, then she needs counselling by a professional.This would be to explore the reason behind using the medications and also to reduce the chance of recurrence.

IF it is accidental then this is not necessary.

She would be expected to be very drowsy it may be difficult to rouse her. In addition there may be dizziness, confusion.

I hope this helps
