I will not tell you that information, but I WILL tell you the side-effects of overdose of Flexeril.
"Overdose symptoms may include drowsiness, fast heartbeat, tremors or shaking, slurred speech, confusion, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations (seeing things), chest pain, or seizure (convulsions)."
(According to, Drugs.com)
Doesn't sound like a very good experience...

From http://www.drugs.com/pro/flexeril.html
For most patients, the recommended dose of Flexeril is 5 mg three times a day. Based on individual patient response, the dose may be increased to 10 mg three times a day. Use of Flexeril for periods longer than two or three weeks is not recommended.
Anything above the recommended dose is considered an overdose.
