Actually, a lethal dose of prozac would work even if you're not depressed, wee willie. Just as arsenic would.

Yes max - there IS. It can be fatal if taken with some other drugs, especially MAO inhibitors (anti-depressants) such as thioridazine. I believe it can act adversely if taken with alcohol as well. Some of the side effects are - palpitations, racing heart, lack of sleep - and if you get any of these side effects, it's best to see your doctor straight away. If anyone corrects me over this - then sorry. We have doctors in our family, and it's the best i can tell you. x

Thanks all! I'm not having a morbid interest in this drug, I only wanted to know how many pills would be likely to cause death. Purely informative stuff!

You hit the concern on the head In A Pickle. I'm very concerned of the way you can get a prescription (or repeat prescription) without being seen by a doctor. I'm thinking people could just not take them, and when they have enough pills, take them all at once. But just how many is enough, at once, is what I'm wondering.
