Juliet is hesitant towards drinking the potion as she questions her trust for Friar Lawrence. She is scared that it may really kill her. She is also worried that when she wakes up she may not know where she is and that she will be driven insane lying next to her ancestors skeletal remains.

In Romeo and Juliet, after Juliet drinks the potion, she will be put into a deep sleep and thought to be dead by her family. Romeo did not get the message sent to him that Juliet wasn't actually dead, so he comes back to check on her.

When he thinks she is dead, he drinks poison and dies.

After Juliet is woken up, she finds him dead and kills herself.

If you are referring to the play, she will seem to die but in reality the potion simply functions to make it seem as if she was dead which in turn caused Romeo to kill himself then she wakes up and does the same.

First, she imagines that the potion is poison. Then, she imagines herself awaking in the tomb, surrounded only by the bodies of her deceased ancestors.
