Can you die from drinking glue?

You can certainly die from drinking glue, but in most cases you would vomit before you got a fatally toxic amount of glue into you. You have to recognize that "glue" covers a very wide range of adhesives that have a wide variety of components. Glue made from old horse hooves will probably make you puke long before you could eat enough to kill you. Trying to drink the components of superglue (cyanoacrylate based adhesive) would cause significant damage to the esophagus to the point of potentially causing fatal bleeding. A bigger risk would be fatal asthma from the fumes. Many glues contain very toxic solvents which can kill a person on their own. Certainly if a person aspirated some of the glue when they were drinking it, they could choke to death on it.


What happens to your body when you eat glue?

Eating glue can be harmful as it is not meant for consumption. Ingesting glue can cause gastrointestinal issues like stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and potentially blockage in the digestive system. It's important to seek medical help if you or someone else has ingested glue.
