As of 2008 there were no documented fatalities attributed directly to an LSD overdose.[7] Despite this, several behavioral fatalities and suicides have occurred due to LSD.[53][54] Eight individuals who accidentally consumed very high amounts by mistaking LSD for cocaine developed comatose states, hyperthermia, vomiting, gastric bleeding, and respiratory problems—all survived, however, with supportive care.[7]

The friend I referred to died decades ago. While I didn't know at the time, he was pretty messed up and abused LSD, heroine and MJ virtually on a daily basis. On the night he died I was in another house down the road when we were told he had overdosed on LSD and was dead . Some time later I heard the family had been told he died from a heart attack following the overdose. I have no idea what was entered on the death certificate or what was documented in the records. All I can say is my 18 year old friend died this way a long time ago. Too young, too tragic.
