how many aspirin does it take to OD?

Question

i was wondering. i was watching a movie where this girl did. and how many do you have to take?

Answer 1

The toxic dose of aspirin is generally considered greater than 150 mg per kg of body mass. Moderate toxicity occurs at doses up to 300 mg/kg, severe toxicity occurs between 300 to 500 mg/kg, and a potentially lethal dose is greater than 500 mg/kg. This is the equivalent of many dozens of the common 325 mg tablets, depending on body weight. Please note that children cannot tolerate as much aspirin per unit body weight as adults can, even when aspirin is indicated. Label-directions should be followed carefully.

P.S. If you're contemplating suicide, aspirin overdose would be a messy, very long, slow way to die - not to mention painful.

Answer 3

a lot, probably 60 or 70 to die within the hour. otherwize you could just cause a lot of internal damage....and in movies it doesnt work when you take the mall at once. your body rejects pills in large amounts, you have to take a couple at a time every 5-10 minutes.... just saying.

Answer 4

This depends on how strong each dose is. The best way to answer this question is to read the bottle.

Answer 5

I can't remember the mg's, but I'm pretty sure at least a bottle.

Answer 6

you dont die in a hour. You feel perfectly fine until it gets into your system and you die a day or two later. the tylenol masks what it is doing to your body. but it shuts down your liver
