🔰OD

✍🏾Meaning:

to take an overdose of a drug

❕For example:

🔺If someone OD's, call an ambulance immediately. After calling, give the person mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if they've stopped breathing.

🔺It's very easy to OD and die from taking a narcotic drug like heroin. This is because narcotics are such powerful drugs that taking a dose which is just a little bit stronger than usual can kill a person. 🗣Note: pronounced "oh-dee"

©Origin: short for "overdose"
