If I read that correctly, they're not exactly sure how she managed to "overdose" on the stuff, they just know she had some ridiculously high level of the stuff in her body. They said either she lathered herself in it ridiculously, or somehow her skin just absorbed the stuff much more than normal. So she might have been just a fluke "overabsorber". Low probability crap like that can happen, well once in a blue moon.

Now, I recall something about some woman who was going to have some dermatological procedure done (at one of these "medical spa" type things), and they gave her some cream to apply beforehand. That was some powerful stuff, IIRC, and she used way too much of it and died in the car on the way. But that stuff wasn't over-the-counter.
