What are the health risks and potential for a fatal overdose if I take five tablets of Rexipra 10 mg (escitalopram) and three tablets of Lonazep (clonazepam), prescribed for depression?

Asked by Female, 32 · 1 month ago

Taking 50 mg of Rexipra (escitalopram) and three tablets of clonazepam exceeds the standard prescribed limits. While this specific amount is generally not fatal on its own, combining them significantly increases health risks. You may experience extreme drowsiness, severe dizziness, confusion, coordination problems, and slowed breathing. There is also a risk of serotonin syndrome, which causes agitation and a rapid heart rate. If you or someone else has already taken this dose, please seek immediate medical attention or contact a poison control centre. If you are experiencing difficult feelings or thoughts of self-harm, please reach out to a healthcare professional or a crisis helpline immediately. Help is always available.
