Nitroglycerin and systoms of overdose?
Hello,
Since this is my first post,I will try to make it short.I have read the data sheet that came with this medicine and it does talk about what happens if someone overdoses.But I am assuming they are talking about an accidental overdose of ,say,3-6 pills.But what does it do to you if someone ingested 50 or more at one time.No,it is not me.Of course everyone says that when they want to know what to expect.But it just happens to be the truth this time.I am a totally disabled Vietnam vet, with no issues bad enough for me to even think of doing something that crazy.Anyway, I have a very close friend, a Vietnam vet as well,that has some serious issues with his torn up body and no legs & with just one arm.The VA psychiatrists have been working with him almost from day one.They continue to fill him with a handful of pills everyday.I mean he has to take 24 every morning,14 at dinner,and 28 every night.But recently he has just completely given up on himself and told me he plans to take the nitroglycerin in the quantity I stated,maybe more.If I tell the VA or any civilian organization,he would disappear,forever.I have not read him the part about overdose on the data paper,yet.I am trying to scare him out of it by telling him the truth that if he did this, that this medicine would do all those things,not only for a longer period of time but worse,before they let you die.
So,any info that I can use would be greatly appreciated.Oh,the last time I ask this on another forum,last week,they somehow got my home address and sent the Sheriff out to my house,and since my friend lives in 'seeing' distance of me,it spooked him off to another location about 40 miles from me.He only let me know where he was yesterday.
Thank you.

Production of Trazadone
See answer above. That is how I arrived at this board. But I don't get it. This might not be the manufacturer? Perhaps we need to research Pharmaceutical World or trazodone + .com.
Trazodone is the generic name for desyrel.
I think the drug is so old that whoever manufactured desyrel doesn't anymore as I did enter desyrel + .com and came up with nothing using MSN search. Hmm......

But do check out this cool link which I found here (!) too regarding all generic drugs:

overdose
My grandma recived glyburide thanks to a pharmacy screw up. She is NOT diabetic at all, she was suppoed to get a drug for incontenance, so she took the stuff not realizing, because the pharmacy never noticed that she had never had this drug before and never went over the proceedures regarding it, for about a week, then subsiquently fell into two diabeitc type comas and is now apparently brain damaged, its like she has sudden onset dementia, (she was compleatly normal before taking glyburide) within days she was compleatly confused and thought she was still in the 1930's, now she thinks shes in the late fourtys or early fifties.

what i would like to know is if anyone else knows of similar overdose cases, wheather diabetic or not, and if the person has ever recovered. this whole thing happened the last week of august. and i am still in agony and have a huge sence of loss for my grandma, i was robbed, only she's still alive and somewhat well.... the bright side is she's forgotten all the foods she never liked and is eating very well these days!

thanks in advanced.....even if the news is bad.
