She kills herself. After convincing Macbeth to kill so many people to get power, her guilt kicks in. This guilt is manifest when she walks in her sleep, talking of washing her hands of the blood, i.e. guilt. It eventually completely consumes her, and she commits suicide.

In Act 5, Scene 1, a Doctor and Gentlewoman observe Lady Macbeth sleepwalking. After observing, the doctor advises the Gentlewoman to "Remove from her the means of all annoyance" (V i 78). He is telling her to keep away from Lady Macbeth anything she could use to kill herself.

In Act 5, Scene 5, Macbeth hears a cry within of women,and it can be assumed that this is either Lady Macbeth or her attendants who have discovered her dead body. Seyton, a nobleman loyal to Macbeth, comes to him and says "The Queen, my lord, is dead." (V v 18).

In the final speech of the play, in Act 5, Scene 8, Malcolm refers to Macbeth's "fiend-like Queen, who, as 'tis thought, by self and violent hands took off her life." (V iix 81-83). This means that it is believed by most people that Lady Macbeth commited suicide.

She doesn't kill anyone, but actually she forces her husband Macbeth to kill King Duncan.

She did not kill..she was the one who motivated Macbeth into killing the King,Duncan. Macbeth then became thirsty for blood and wanted to remove threats by killing those who are suspicious(he killed banqou)-He then commits more murders that are driven by the first one...So, Ldy Macbeth is the reason of all the murders that Macbeth committed!

The witches' prophecies told Macbeth that no natural born man could kill him. Therefore when Macbeth is faced by Macduff and reveals the prophecy then Macduff exposes the fact that he was born by caesarean section. Macduff kills Macbeth at the end of the play.

Lady Macbeth personaly didn't kill anyone but she spoke of "Baby bashing," perhaps suggesting Banquos son Fleance. She did tempt sucessfully Macbeth to kill King Duncan.
