Apart from telling Romeo that Juliet is not really dead, giving the apothecary a whole bunch of money so he doesn't have to sell poisons in order to get his next meal might work.

Why does romeo say that he pays the apothecary's poverty and not his will?
Because the apothecary said that he would sell the poison to Romeo only because he needed the money so badly (selling poison is illegal in Mantua). Therefore, the apothecary's poverty (state/situation) is forcing him to take Romeo's offer, not because he wants to disobey the law. Romeo is paying the apothecary's need, not his want.

How do you think events would have turned out if the apothecary has refused to sell poison to romeo?
If the apothecary had refused to sell poison to Romeo, Romeo may have sought out another means to end his life, possibly resulting in a different turn of events for the tragic end of Romeo and Juliet. Alternatively, Romeo may have abandoned his plan altogether, leading to a potential alternative resolution for the story.

How many men could the poison kill in romeo and Juliet?
If you look at the immediate causes of the deaths of the people in the play who die, Romeo caused the death of Tybalt (he stuck a sword through him), Paris (he skewered him too) and himself (he drank poison). With the other deaths, you can argue that the other people would never have died if it hadn't been for Romeo, but you can create similar arguments for just about everyone in the play. The fact is that Tybalt, not Romeo, sticks a sword in Mercutio, Juliet, not Romeo, sticks a knife in herself, and Romeo's mother must be made of feeble stuff if she dies because Romeo has to move to a different town.

Shakespeare gives us no detail of the poison Juliet uses. And although he does not give any detail, the poison most likely used would have been Canterella.Canterella gave the illusion that the user was dead seeing as it cause it's victims to give no noticeable pulse. Victims were asleep for four hours.Here is an interesting discussion can be had about what poisons are at work here, nonetheless:http://mb.sparknotes.com/mb.epl?b=859&m=1336762
