Prazosin overdose may cause extreme dip in blood pressures. As the blood pressure dips below certain threshold, your brother can also go into coma and it would have been a highly dangerous situation. There can be other serious manifestations too.
I appreciate your gesture of bringing him to ER as a whole bottle of 2mg Prazosin is a very high dose. I hope your brother is out of danger by now. Thanks for writing into healthcare magic. All the best for your brother.
