"This article says it's not known what happens with an overdose of Prometrium, but I can tell you do not take 2 doses at once. I normally take 800 mg/day for the last half of my cycle to suppress catamenial seizures. It works great with no negative side effects. I take 200 mg every 6 hours. I recently missed a 200 mg dose, so I took 400 mg at once. I was completely anesthetized for a couple of hours. My body went jelly-like. Everything slowed way down to the point that words came too slowly, if at all. My family opted to take me to the ER. Later, it was determined I was likely not in danger of dying but was clearly knocked out for a while. The memory of much of those 2 hours is totally lost to me. My family says I was pleasant and cooperative but out of it."
