My son is on prescribed Suboxone. He was out with friends, Sat. night. He became unresponsive, drooling and does not remember event. Friends called 911, he was transported to ER. Per nurse alcohol and drug screens were neg. He was drinking a coke before incident happened. He routinely drinks a lot of Monster Energy Drinks and diet coke. Unsure about what happened.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your son, soft drink does not cause anything such symptoms that person's sensorium being alter, if this is so then this may not be due to the drink that your son had, but in my opinion this need to be investigated further and CT brain is the right choice for this, take care and have a nice day.
