Drowning by taking an OD of quetiapine in the bath?

[Walilamdzi]

Think this would work?

I don't know, but I doubt it. It would be marvellous. If you find a method to die peacefully in the bathtub, please let me know.

 

[Walilamdzi]

I have 15 grams of it atm but inconclusive as to what that would even do.

 

[ZardozOmega]

Probably not. Quetiapine is very safe in overdoses. People who took over 20 grams have survived with no lasting effects.

Yep. Extremely unlikely to work.

Maybe if you were to pass out from the overdose and slide down far enough to drown? Quetiapine is safe as in it won't kill you but the OD will knock you on your ass for a while (I've done it). You'd need a large bathtub to be able to slide down far enough I'd think, unless you're really small. Even then, I'm not well-versed in drowning so I'm not sure. It doesn't sound reliable.

I found some more and now I have almost 25 grams, still no chance?

It's unlikely to work and it can be quite unpleasant, sorry.

 

[Notabadguy]

Maybe in river or ocean, but I don't think that drowning in a bathtub is likely, mabye in the movies, but not in real life.

Quetiapine unfortunately is just one of those drugs which is quite safe to overdose on. It is known as the safest atypical antipsychotic medication and thus the reason why it is so popular. So no to the 25grams that you have. Here is the link to an article where a women is successfully treated following an OD of 36g of Quetiapine. https://www.hindawi.com/journals/crim/2009/371698/

I'm afraid the only way Quetiapine would reliably kill you was if you increased the dosage to 25 kilograms, and had someone drop it onto your head from a skyscraper...

It will be hard since the first thing youll do when on the brink of passing out would probably be get out of the water somehow. Unless you tie yourself up in a really complex way. There was an escape artist who was so good attying himself up that he couldnt manage to break free from his ties in time and drowned in a bathtub

Drowning will release a huge amount of adrenaline into you bloodstream, which in turn couneracts Q in your body. so no. it won't work.
