Dramamine or dimenhydrinate usually taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed. Do not take more than 400 mg of this medication in one day.
The usual side effects of overdoes are -
* drowsiness or dizziness;
* restlessness, excitation, nervousness, or insomnia;
* blurred or double vision;
* dry mouth, nose, or throat;
* decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea;
* difficulty urinating; or
* an irregular or fast heartbeat.
Stop taking dimenhydrinate and seek emergency medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives). -

i have heard of doses up to 20 mg that didnt kill but made the user very sick for many days. introducing that many antihistamines into your body can really screw up your natural flora. and why do you want to know ow many it takes to die? for one, if i knew, i couldnt tell you because i would be dead. and for another, dramamine od would be a horrible way to go. i bet you any amount of money that tomorrow will be a better day.

Call your local ER & ask to speak to a doctor.
