Suggest Treatment For Nausea And Stomach Cramps After Intake Of Alcohol Mixture

Hi, My daughter had her 18th birthday yesterday and today is very unwell, for the last 10 hours she has had nausea, trembling and very painful stomach cramps. I have found out that she took the following things; one tab of acid, about 30 nos (nitrous oxide I think) capsules via inhalation and about 2 pints of an alcohol mixture in one go as a dare by her friends, she is 18 and quite slight build, can you offer any advice, thanks Lin

wow, addiction intervention, counseling etc. at least in short term about the risks.
Fatal overdose of nitrous and alcohol are at the time of adminstration and not the next day. Withdrawal effects of any/all of the above occurs the next day. For mild cases, a SMALL dose ONE TIME of an aspirin like drug and a decent amount of fluid and rest in a dark, quiet area are helpful ("HANGOVER"). The fluid should be administered in small amounts frequently to avoid vomiting it all back up. If not able to keep anything down, dehydration is a risk by 24 hrs and will benefit from a small (not requiring admission) hospital visit for iv fluids and medicines.
