If a person has alcohol poisoning how do you know when/if you should call 911

Some symptoms start mild and grow worse. Signs of alcohol poisoning include:

Smelling like alcohol

Confusion or slurred speech

Poor coordination or stumbling

Damp or clammy skin

Some symptoms of alcohol poisoning are more serious. These include:

Severe confusion

Trouble staying awake

Throwing up

Seizures

Slow breathing (fewer than eight breaths per minute)

Long pauses between breaths (10 seconds or more)

Very slow heartbeat

Low body temperature

Bluish or pale skin

Slow responses (such as gag reflex)

If you think someone you're with has alcohol poisoning, take these steps:

Call 911 right away.

Don’t leave the person alone.

Try to keep them awake and sitting upright.

Have them sip water if they’re awake.

Cover them with a warm blanket.

If they’re passed out, get them onto their side to keep them from choking on vomit.

Tell the paramedics about their symptoms and how much they drank.

Don’t do these things. They may do more harm than good:

Giving the person a cold shower, which can lower their body temperature

Giving them food, which can cause vomiting or choking

Trying to have them "walk it off," which could lead to a fall

Trying to make them throw up, as this can cause choking

answer; 42pills or capsules; now if the person eats three meals a day then it would be 80 pills or capsules, and if the person only eats twice a day then it would be 56 pills or capsules; good luck
