Someone who has overdosed on alcohol or other drugs may show one or more of the following: snoring or
gurgling breathing in someone who appears to be asleep; no response to shaking, to calling of his/her name
or to pain; bluish lips, toenails or fingernails (caused by lack of oxygen;) cold, clammy or bluish skin (caused
by poor circulation;) very slow and shallow breathing or no breathing at all; a pulse that is very slow, faint or
absent; seizures (jerking movements or eyes rolling back;) or extreme confusion. The person may be suffering
from alcohol or other drug poisoning if the person cannot be awakened, or if he/she vomits while passed out
and does not wake up during or after vomiting. If the person is breathing slowly or irregularly - less than 8
breaths a minute or 10 seconds or more between any 2 breaths, the person is in serious trouble and
needs immediate help!
