Tramadol and benzodiazepine cases were more prevalent among illicit drug overdose followed by those diagnosed as methyl alcohol, cannabis and opiate and other opioids with male predominance. Morbidities and severity were more noticeable among cases of acute tramadol, opiate and other opioids and methyl alcohol overdose regarding cardiovascular, neurological and metabolic morbidities.
