The cynical answer is that she no longer served any dramatic purpose alive so Shakespeare wrote her out. But within the drama, both of the Macbeths are tortured by guilt, and are starting to come unhinged. Their guilt must lead them both to death, but Lady M is not the kind of person to fight it out with Macduff. Her death must come in a different way. And the fact that she dies before Macbeth means that Macbeth gets his terrific soliloquy in which he expresses the absolute emptiness of his life: "Tomorrow, and tomorrow and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day."

Is lady Macbeth poisoned?
We are not told how Lady Macbeth died. All we hear is "The queen, my lord is dead." It is up to the director to consider whether he wants to dramatize the death in some way or just leave it offstage. The director could choose to show Lady Macbeth poisoning herself, or sleepwalking off a parapet, or dying by some other means. It is unlikely that she was poisoned by someone else. Nobody would want to poison her except herself.

How is Lady Macbeth stronger then Macbeth?
At the beginning of the play Macbeth feels unsure and guilty about killing King Duncan - he is supposed to be loyal towards him! Lady Macbeth plans Duncan's death without asking Macbeth first and tells him what to do. At first she is not guilty about killing him, she wants to be the stronger more manly one. After his death, guilt haunts Macbeth. However, by the end of the play the two characters have effectively swapped roles. Lady Macbeth is now driven crazy by guilt and ends up committing suicide because of it. Macbeth on the other hand is the strong powerful one, he now kills without feeling anything!

What is the shift between Macbeth and lady Macbeth?
I am guessing that the interchange is that one in 2,2 as follows: Lady M: Did you not speak? Macbeth: When? Lady M: Now. Macbeth: As I descended? Lady M: Ay. Macbeth Hark! Who lies in the second chamber? Lady M: Donalbain. Macbeth: This is a sorry sight. The conversation is usually performed very rapidly with the words almost tumbling over each other. The characters are trying to answer each other but Macbeth is distracted by his own thoughts. Lady M has heard a voice, and wants to find out about it, but she never gets an answer. Macbeth asks who is sleeping in Room 210, but when he gets his answer he does not explain why he asked it but goes on to talk about his bloody hands. They are nervous, their thoughts (and we assume their hearts) are racing to the extent that they are incoherent. Their nervous tension gets communicated to the audience.
