Vomiting And Sick Feeling After Drinking Vodka, Is Taking Plenty Of Water. What Should Be Done?

My 22 yr old daughter drank too much vodka and now she s throwing up and feels extremely ill. I ve read the symptoms for alcohol poisoning and I just don t know how to tell if I should take her to the hospital or just let her go to sleep. I ve been giving her sips of water and she s kept that down so far and I m checking her breathing every few minutes.
