As a medical student that gets nonsense like this as question stems on exams: "confused and horrified screaming"
Patient directed to sit down, lean forward, tuck head between knees, and kiss own ass goodbye.
While working in the ER I've seen some impressive ingestions, both intentional and unintentional. I can guarantee that if he survives, it ain't gonna be a fun time. Off the top of my head, I think he'd be getting Narcan, Amiodarone, Flumazenil, cardiovascular and respiratory support, and probably hemodialysis. If he doesn't die from the cocktail, the hospital bill might get him.
