try and throw them up?.... yes (this post is prolly too late tho) i would say if they haven't been thrown up then have the person lie down so they don't fall down. this is the main concern i would consider but yes call a doctor or ambulance.

Symptoms of overdose are due to excessive pharmacodynamic actions on β1 and also β2-receptors. These include bradycardia, severe hypotension with shock, acute heart failure, hypoglycemia and bronchospastic reactions. Treatment is largely symptomatic. Hospitalization and intensive monitoring is indicated. In early cases emesis can be induced. Activated charcoal is useful to absorb the drug. Atropine will counteract bradycardia, glucagon helps with hypoglycemia, dobutamine can be given against hypotension and the inhalation of a β2-mimetic as hexoprenalin or salbutamol will terminate bronchospasms.

you need to call poison control, there are too many variablesm, like the weight of the person that took the drug,
was it with food, or on an empty stomach. Does that person have cardiac issues and for how long...there are other things a professional needs to know to be able to calculate the risk.
