Answers:
You ask for serious side effects, so I'll concentrate on those. Please realize though that deplorably dozens of teenagers overdose every day, very few of them suffer serious long-term health problems. Your friend is imagined going to be fine. That said,
Most immediately, codeine is an opiate medication that suppresses respiratory drive. She could have stopped breathing and suffered permanent brain mar. Secondly this medication can badly damage the liver, an organ that (along with the kidneys) filter the body of waste and is also intricately involved in metabolism.
Third, and this is the part probably most applicable to your friend, attempted suicide is amazingly serious. Even if it were just a few pills vs. a whole bottle, it can be a sign of serious underlying depression and/or substance treat roughly disorder. She may do it again, do it better. Her doctors will deal with the problems like I describe above, but for most importantly for you try and be here as a friend when she gets out of the hospital. Don't pry or judge, don't try to play amateur psychiatrist. Just be there to listen and abet her through it, and be on the lookout for signs that she may re-attempt in the future.
I'm sorry that your friend is going through a difficult time right now. It is apt that you are a friend to her, giving her support.
Most likely, when your friend was taken to the hospital, they pumped her stomach to get rid of the pills she swallowed.
Now is the unyielding part for your friend. The doctors need to find out what made your friend overdose, for instance was it unintended or a suicide attempt. Then she will get some therapy, talking to a counselor or psychiatrist to find out what made your friend overdose on pills. They can sustain her if something happened to her that made her do this to herself.
Eventually, you will be allowed to see your friend. Right now the doctors need to treat your friend and aid her, so she won't overdose again on pills.
Support your friend. If you can't see her right now, send her a card or letter to tolerate her know that you care about her and that you are her friend.
Best of luck to your friend. Hope I helped.
