Could you tell me what happens if you swallow 10ml of lidocaine and weigh about 195?

See below: Most likely you will get a numb mouth and tongue. This drug is not designed to be readily absorbable via the stomach, so the chances of toxicity are minimal. I would suggest that you don't keep doing this.

Lido swallow: Lidocaine comes in a variety of strengths. Usually ranging from 0.5% to 4%. 4% Lidocaine would have 8 times the number of mg per ml of lidocaine. This type of Lidocaine administration should only be done by a physician.
