If an adult female in her early 40's who weighs 90lbs is using a mixture of adderal, xanax, alcohol, and Marijuana everyday how likely is it that these drugs and alcohol had an impact on her overall health and immune system if she ultimately developed double pneumonia (bacterial and viral) and ended up in the ICU?

Welcome to Mayo connect. Most of us are not medical professionals, but can offer support and advice.

Any unhealthy habit can impact overall health. The best person to advise her is the provider who is caring for her in hospital or her primary care provider. But, to be helpful, she needs to be totally honest with providers on what drugs and / or substance she is using.

Is this a relative or friend you're asking about? How is she doing?
