How heroin, cocaine or marijuana although any other type of drug is considered and not? Please have the measurment in grams or pounds.
Lethal doses are usually measured in something like grams per kilogram of body weight.
You can find the lethal dose of marijuana http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/ ...
The lowest estimate is about one third of your body weight. The highest is 1,500 pounds - fifteeen consumed in minutes.
If by "overdose" you mean "enough to make you uncomfortable," which depends on the person. Beginners can do it very easily. Experienced users may consume large quantities of any apparent sequelae - other than going to sleep want to eat.
For heroin, the "overdose" amount (which will kill) is open to question. For inexperienced users, the amount may be relatively low. Drug addicts, on the other hand, can be quite high doses of pure heroin with no adverse effects. See, for example, Chapter 12. The "heroin overdose" mystery and other occupational hazards of addiction http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/Library/ ...
It is believed that most cases of heroin "overdose" the United States are really the result of impurities in the heroin on the black market. See the article linked above for a fuller explanation.
Deaths from overdose of cocaine are actually quite low in the U.S. - a few thousand a year - roughly the same number as die from common drugs like Tylenol.
its different for every person you know when u cos its an overdose as faint and are very sick and probably die, not bad.
A) You can not overdose on marijuana.
B) An overdose would really depend on the drug itself and the person taking it, would it not? You can not just say "this amount is too much."
It depends on what your body can withstand. I know people who have an overdose of cocaine and 0.5g I also know people who sniff about 3-4 grams per day if it really depends on what your body can handle
You realize that you practically already admitted to using "illegal" drugs, and a criminal.
And even if I knew the answer to your question I do not want to give.
