Not to give you a vague answer, but every person's physiology is different. Body mass, metabolism, tolerance, etc. all play roles in determining the exact answer to your question. Whereas one person could never wake up after taking just 10mg of Methadone, there are others who are on levers as high as 200-300mg a day to treat Heroin addiction.

For someone opiate dependant who has titraded up to a dose of 110mg per day, it is not dangerous if taken as intended. However, if mixed with other central nervous system depressants or if taken by someone who is opiate naive, this dose could very easily be fatal.
