Tazapine Overdose

My partner took a very large overdose of mirtazapine a few days ago, he vomited some of them back but has since been very muzzy headed, spaced out, dizzy, numb hands and feet and cannot balance. He won't go to hospital, What should I do? ## Taking him to the hospital, anyway! Even if he survived, he could have done permanent damage to himself and his life could still be in danger from organ failure. Learn more Mirtazapine details here. Sometimes, when you care about someone, you have to take such a decision out of their hands and just act to get them the help they need. How is he doing now?...

My 24 year old overdosed on paracetamol and aspirin last week. She took over 40 tablets. After being released from hospital and seeing her local GP she has been given 14 day supply of this drug. I am concerned to allow her to keep all the tablets. ## Hi, I had overdosed on 15mg mirtazapines and had the Dr's check me over about 3 days later. Do you think all is ok? ## This is an antidepressant that is used to treat various mental health conditions. If you are concerned, it might be best for you to keep the tablets and dispense one to her each day, for her own safety, that is often what is done in mental health units, when someone is suicidal and they want to be cautious. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood swings, headache, ......

I recently came out of the military and was on a steady dose of 45mg before bedtime. Unfortunately I tried to end my life because of problems and was diagnosed as having a nervous meltdown. My gp said that because the mirtazapine suited me he put the dose up to 2 a night 90mg, this has had a massive impact on my life and made me feel really poorly, even more poorly when 7 months down the line another doctor halved the dose back to 45mg obviously noticed the mistake his colleague had made. Well this made me so I'll I went down hill very fast. Can you please advise? ## Hello, Simon! How are you? Yes, the normal max dosage is 45mgs a day, so 90mgs is very high. However, when going back down, it is normal to experience some withdrawal effects, such as what you've described. The FDA ......

My boyfriend took about 10 tabs of 10mg valium at once. It is his first time to take valium and wasn't thinking of the bad effects he might experience. How would i be able to help him get through it? Pls help ## if your b/f is using this amount regularly then he will become addicted to them in quite a short space of time, although,as most doctors will tell you, it is hard to overdose on diazepam alone, it is only when mixed with other substances that the overdose risk is higher. Diazepam, being used continuously for 4 weeks plus will cause, in the majority of people, severe anxiety, panic attacks, apathy, depression and many other undesirable symptoms. Although after 2 months or so, depending on the persons lifestyle etc, of not using the drug the majority of these withdrawal sympto......

What are the effects of overdosing on losartan, multiple 100 mg tabs? ## Hello, Mick! How are you? If you know someone that took too many, they should seek emergency medical attention. That amount could cause a fatal overdose, due to the fact that it lowers both blood pressure and heart rate, so having them fall too low could cause heart and/or respiratory failure, as listed by the FDA. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi. A couple of hours back my cousin took 3 losartan h tablets. What will be the consequences? Please reply back asap... The patient is age 25. ## What will happen if a person overdosed on multiple Losartan Co Unicorn 100/25 and Carloc 12.5 at one time?...

Hello.. I'm from India. By mistake, I took 5 deriphyllin retard 150 tablets at the same time. What should I do now? ## Hi manasi, Sorry to hear about what happened. I would strongly encourage you to contact your doctor and/or local poison control at your earliest convenience to better evaluate the seriousness of the issue; including what side effects you should be aware of. In the meantime, I know that "activated charcoal" is often used medically for removing toxins/excess prescription drugs from the body. There is also a supplement called Zeolite that you may want to look into as well. How are you feeling right now? ## Hi there, mistakenly I have taken a double dose of deriphyllin retard 150 tablet. Should I reach out to my doctor? It's been 1 hr and I am feeling dizzin......
