Absolutely not. All an overdose of valium will do is cause a person to lapse into somnolence from which they will awaken in a dose dependant amount of time. Valium has no LD-50, (dose that would kill 50% of people who take it) because noone has ever died from overdose of valium alone. One must consider, however, that a person who has exceeded the reccommended dose ov valium, may have taken other things as well, so you go through the usual overdose routine. - also because it may serve notice not to repeat this self destructive behavoir. A psych consult would also be in order.

It's pretty much impossible to OD on Valium. I haven't looked this up but if my memory serves me right I think monkeys that were given something like 600mg per kg of body weight every day during the trials of the drug died on the 6th day. With most tablets being either 5 mg (yellow ones) or 10 mg (blue ones) then that would equal more tablets than you could get at one time. An person weighing 80 kg would have to ingest 4,800 10mg tablets per day for 6 days. Your stomach wouldn't be able to hold that much product in it. (and you would probably fall asleep sometime after the first 30 or so anyway)

I think an overdose of anything can kill you.
