Any overdose is a reason for hospitalization. Of course the kidney problems from overdose overlap totally with all the other causes of kidney pain. It is not easy to have a kidney condition without a change in the urine. Certainly stones, infection, or inflammation, all of which potentially could be associated with an overdose but are more common with IV injection, would not only show on the urinalysis but would generally show visibly in the urine. Still, a regualar visit for kidney pain would likely show it.
However, the depression, suicidaltiy wouldn't be treated correctly wtihout telling someone about it.
