Benzonatate Overdose Risks (Top voted first)

Updated

A friend of mine is having some troubles in life and has been threatening to take all capsules of 100mg benzonatate she has left, (I know its 52 because I counted). I need to know if my friend could die from this...I've been worried about my friend for months, and I have the drug hidden for now but I have to work and my friend quit their job. I don't want my friend finding it and attempting to take them. Please tell me if my friend can get seriously hurt or die from this?

If you want to be technical, the benzonatate could kill you if you take more than what's prescribed to you to take each day. You can have seizures and that can kill you.

Hello, Boo! How is your friend doing?

If your friend is in the state of mind, she needs to get help. Whether you hide something from her, or not, if she really wants to commit suicide, she will find a way and there are many different ways to do so.

Does she have family or a doctor that could contact to inform of the issue?
