Hi,

It is up to some limit the human body can tolerate the toxic effect of any drug which falls into the narcotic category.

After that bad or fatal consequence is likely for sure. In your case it seems to be the same thing happening.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
