Depending on how much of an overdose that was, worst case would be delayed liver failure and death I think.

I know that iron overload will make you throw up. And the medicine likely contained vitamins as well, so you might have gotten too much of some of them too. But I think non-extreme vitamin overdoses aren't lethal, just unpleasant.

Excess iron can cause cardiac arrest depending on the amount, perhaps vomiting. If that doesn't happen. You will be severely constipated/intestine stuck, or you may have initial diarrhea, also due to the quantity. But at some point you will feel a lot of pain in your stomach. If you survive, I would recommend plenty of water, yogurt and fiber, a laxative might help. (Calcium usually cuts the effect of iron, eat or drink things with calcium)

was going to do this with tablets instead of syrup

hope that it wasn't too painful for you and that you're at peace now or at least not in too much pain or a coma if you survived

He almost definitely survived and probably ended up in the hospital.
