Morphine sulfate overdose?

Question

If a person took about 7-10 pills of morphine sulfate... would they die?

This is for a story I am writing...

Answer 1

i've done 10 in one day and didn't die, i barely got a buzz. if they disolved it and injected it they might die or even if they used it as a suppository.

Answer 2

Possibly. Morphine comes in many strengths, and people have a wide range of tolerance. You'd be surprised, though, how few overdoses with this or any other drug or combination of drugs actually end in death.

Answer 3

The lethal dose of morphine is 250mg averagely.

So maybe 15~20 pills will kill a person.
