Brief Answer:
Yes, it can cause serious complications.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
30 pills of Zolfresh 10mg is sufficient to cause serious and life-threatening complications. This level of overdose can cause excessive sedation, respiratory depression, coma and even death. But you have mentioned that she took the overdose 1 week ago and so has passed the acute, life-threatening phase. However, it is still possible that there can suffer from serious complications of the overdose. So, in this situation, it is essential that you inform her doctor and her parents about her overdose so that she can be evaluated appropriately and necessary treatment can be initiated as early as possible. This is the best remedy to save her. She also needs a psychiatric consultation and counselling to ensure that such a thing is not repeated in the future.
Best wishes.
