Answer 1

500mg of sleeping pills may cause death if not treated immediately.Please rush the victim to the nearest hospital right now.

Answer 2

well this is dumb..if he just took 5000 mg of sleeping pills then you should be taking him to the hospital to get his stomach pumped, not be asking on yahoo answers if it is enough to overdose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

Don't know what he took- but 5,000 mg of almost any sedative is a very big dose.  He may look like he's sleeping, but be in coma.  He needs medical attention NOW.  Call 911, report a suicide attempt, and be sure to search his house for any OTHER drugs he may have added.  At a certain point , they just stop breathing. Better hurry.

Answer 4

why don't you just call 911 and ask them
