Valproate: it's generally fairly safe with severe toxicity only occuring at doses of 400mg-1000mg/kg or more and it's fairly readily treatable if you were found:


Very high doses cause multi-organ toxicity so there's the possibility of lasting damage if you recover.

Quote from the link:
------------------------------
RISK ASSESSMENT

Severity of toxicity is related to the dosage ingested:

<200mg/kg: nil to minor effects, i.e. mild drowsiness
200 – 400mg/kg: moderate toxicity, i.e. CNS depression
400 — 1000 mg/kg: severe toxicity, i.e. Coma
>1g/kg: potentially life threatening, i.e. profound coma, multi-organ toxicity including hypotension, metabolic (lactic) acidosis, cerebral oedema, biochemical abnormalities, bone marrow suppression
------------------------------


At an avg body weight of 75kg you would have to ingest min 75g of this medicine. That's a lot and therefore the method is unreliable imo.
