You need to call 911 & talk to them, taking that many sleeping pills is quite serious. It all depends what kind they are & what she did sounds suicidal, so she needs to be evaluated.

First off, slap her for acting like an idiot.
Second: get her to a hospital asap.
It's unlikely that if she's not unconcious by now that it's going to do much, but that much of ANY pill is dangerous.
If this was a suicide attempt, ignore number one please, and substitute that for a hug and a slight scolding about what you and her family would have experienced finding her corpse on the floor.
These kind of sleeping pills are Over The Counter, so they're basically glorified Benadryl.
Get her to the emergency room if she gets sleepy or starts feeling worse.
DO NOT LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!!!
That's all you need is to tell her "Nope you'll be fine!" and come back to see she's taken 20 more.
If you can't drive, call an ambulance and her parents.
She'll be pissed, yeah, but it's better to lose the friendship, than the ACTUAL friend.
Please?

thats basically benadryl under tylenols brand name and it probably will just make her really cotton mouthed and feeling high but if shes doing this on purpose she needs to seek help...mental that is

DID SHE JUST TAKE THEM? IF SO, CALL 911! NEVER EVER TAKE MORE THAN THE PRESCRIBED DOSE OF A DRUG, ESPECIALLY OF SLEEPING PILLS.
