What Friar Lawrence says will happen is exactly what does happen. "Presently though all thy veins shall run a cold and drowsy humour, for no pulse shall keep his native progress, but surcease; no warmth, no breath, shall testify thou livest, the roses in thy lips and cheeks shall fade to paly ashes; thy eyes' windows fall like death." Basically she is going to look like she is dead: no pulse, no breath, no colour, and no warmth, and she will stay like that for 42 hours.

Juliet mentioned if the potion did not work she would kill herself. So it was implied that the next plan would be a suicide to avoid marriage to Paris.
