How much Prozac will cause an over dose?

Answer 1

As someone who has tried to overdose on a mixture or prozac and ibroprofen and then drank heavily, it is more than 35 pills of Prozac & 6 ibroprufen to even do anything more than make you have bad stomach ache, plus the alcohol all it results in is a collapse and hospitalization. In my case I was prescribed Prozac for suicidal tendencies and my doctors informed me that I could not kill myself on it (although I tried). It can cause substantial damage, and I was lucky as I was young my body rebounded, if you are considering this you should go and see your doctor and get referred to a therapist. There was never a risk of death in my case aside from choking on my vomit.

Answer 2

If you are asking this question, I think it's time to make an appointment. Something is not working properly either chemically in your brain or with the medication.

The best suggestion is to see a doctor. All it takes is asking for help.

Besides, who wants to OD? Then the docs will have to put charcoal in your stomach, pump it out and then will send you to mental health. You will then poo black for a week.

Answer 3

I googled it: You'll vomit bile and blood and your liver and kidneys begin to fail. You may possibly have seizures and then go into cardiac arrest. Based on 20mg capsules, perhaps a half bottle would be deadly.

Answer 4

Any amount larger than your doctor perscribed you is an overdose.

Answer 5

Not very much.

I usually take one a day and I took 17 last week and ended up in hospital for 5 days.

It's not actaully pleasant.

God knows what I was thinking :S
