A little, and a lot, can kill a human, wiki states that 0.2g can be fatal to a human, but it fails to give a weight of that human,

MSDS States LD50(lethal dose kill rate of 50% of tested subjects) performed on rats injected with coniine: 30 mg/kg

so if we are like rats and talking about a person that weighs 180 lbs, which is about 80 kg, it would take

30*80 = 2400

2400 mg or 2.4 g, couple pea sized amounts would kill 50% of the people who injected this amount. double that amount to 5g, you would have a lethal dose about 100%

I am not sure about the oral dose, but i doubt that it strays to far from this number, perhaps 1mg/kg, but i do not know.
