Pine-Sol Bottle

[Anonymous521]

What side effect(s) would happen to a person if s/he drinks a bottle of Pine-Sol? You see, there was a rumor about a girl who tried to kill herself by drinking the probably 3/4 bottle. Answering the question and/or providing your own opinion would be greatly appreciated.

[Phi for All]

Any kind of terpene ingestion is going to cause some major central nervous system problems. Ingesting undiluted Pine-sol in that kind of quantity would probably put you in a coma. And I can't imagine it would be a kind way to go, what with all the caustic effect on soft tissue. Your screaming would be pretty painful.

without knowing the ingredients / chem breakdown of what`s in it it`s hard to say, but as Phi said, if it contains volatile terpenes then CNS depression is very likely!

 

having said that she did well to get through 3/4`s I doubt I`de get the stuff past my tongue before spitting it out and gargling with some battery acid to shift the taste
