I've read in a number of places that taking 20mg of Valium might have some serious effects. On Friday night I took 50mg of Valium and I slowly began to realize afterwoods that it might have not been a good idea. On Saturday night I woke up a little bit drowsy and unsure of myself, but as far as I know there were know long term side effects.

My question is, how many Valium pills does it take to overdose? I may also add that I have had a history with Valium, but within the last almost 2 months I have not touched one pill.

If someone could please get back to me on this I would greatly appreciate it, as I am quite troubled over this matter.

Thank you so much and have a great and wonderful day.

Well first of all, if you are taking that much Valium at once, then you obviously have a problem and need help.

As to how much you can OD on, it does vary from person to person and how it affects them, those who take it on a regular basis tend to build up a tolerance to it, and it takes much more for them to have an adverse reaction to it, people who have never taken it before, or stopped taking it for awhile, will suffer adverse effects from a much lower dose, because their bodies aren't used to the drug.

As to long term side effects, you might not feel them, but they are there in your body. Taking pills like that can affect your stomach, liver, kidneys and etc. You might not have symptoms from that damage right now, but if you continue on this path, you will eventually get hit with them.

An overdose usually occurs when you get into thousands of MGS of a pill, because then you are breaking into grams of a med, instead of mgs, 1000mgs equals a gram.

My information is not guaranteed correct. I do not get them right all the time, but I do enjoy the hunt~

It depends on your weight, best person to ask would be your doctor.
I took 110mg when i was 100kg / 220 pounds, as well as some opiates but someone called the hospital so i was ok. They put me on a drip and asked me some questions, dont really remember much, slept for a long time, when i woke up i couldnt sleep for 3 nights, another time i just couldnt sleep because of bipolar, i took 60mg, it didnt affect me much. I dont take diazapan much though because i dont like its side effects (tiredness, lack of attention etc)

Best advice is stay off drugs, do you want to be living with a ruined kidney and bad heart? if you need to take drugs to live you are not living and the afterlife might be a better option for you.

It depends on the person. We all have different reactions/tolerances to the same thing. 50mg of valium would not over dose me, but it would kill another person. A lot has to do with how benzo naive our body is and what our level of tolerance is. It's not a good idea to take an amount that leaves you wonering if you took too much or not. What you survived today could do the trick next time. God bless.
