Best Answer

Juliet was given the sleeping potion on Tuesday, and was supposed to drink it on Wednesday night, but Lord Capulet changed the wedding date to Wednesday so Juliet drank it Tuesday night. Juliet woke up late Thursday night or early Friday morning and killed herself. So she was sleeping for about two days, forty-two hours to be exact.

Friar Lawrence gave Juliet a potion that would put Juliet into a coma-like sleep for about two days straight. Everybody would think she was dead.
