A member asked:
What clinical procedure is followed to treat 400 mg benzodiazepines (temazepm) od - 2 hours after intake? not suicide attempt, taken by mistake
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go to ER!: The clinical procedure would be to go to the er after such an accident. To achieve that amount of temazepam, one would have to take more than 10 pills even at the highest dosage/pill there is. It is not a case of taking just a pill extra by mistake. Because of this it doesn't sound accidental at all. This is a serious problem, and needs emergency evaluation.
