Pliva 434 is
Trazodone 100mg
So how much did your friend take? Dr.s say the safe limit of daily use is 400mg.
Trazodone is as a unique antidepressant with some sedative and anti-anxitey applications. It blocks the reuptake of seritonin in the brain like prozac, but through a differen mechanism and less effictivly. I assume that dangers of overdose would be similir to prozac and other serotonin regulating drugs, but the sedative effects of trazodone may depress breathing as well. Don't take chances w/ drug overdoses...call poison control or get your friend to a hospital if he shows any signs of overdose, including dangerously slow breathing or convulsions/seizures. Mixing w/ any other CNS depressants (including alcohol) greatly increases these risks, as oes mixing w/ other antidepressants.
