Is 16g of quetiapine enough to kill me?

I have 16 grams of quetiapine. Is that enough to ctb? And with what certainty, what could possibly happen if I don't die etc, if anyone knows.

The oral LD50 if quetiapine in rats is 2000 mg/kg. Some signs and symptoms of a quetiapine overdose include sedation, drowsiness, tachycardia, and hypotension. Clinical trials demonstrate that overdoses of up to 30 grams of quetiapine did not result in death.

It's basically impossible to die from Quetiapine. That's why it's so safe to give to people with suicidal thoughts. I have bpd and take Quetiapine. I don't actually know of a single death due to Quetiapine OD. Even if you had the massive amount of pills you'd need, you'd throw up and or fall asleep before u can take enough. If u add in anti emetics you're gonna fall asleep even faster.
So no, Quetiapine won't work. But chances are it will mess up your heart permanently. Not enough to kill you, but enough your life even more miserable than it feels like now.
It's not worth it.

I actually have 80 200mg pills ground into powder, because I knew that taking them as pills would make the whole thing a lot harder than it actually needs to be

I have no idea, but all I know is that 50mg of quetiapine knocks me the fuck out

Usually in doses that small the quetiapine is fast-acting, the bigger dose pills are slow-acting. I also use 25-50mg of the fast-acting one every night to sleep, but the slow-acting ones are used to treat certain mental illnesses (I can't remember for certain which ones exactly, but I used it to treat depression).
Also I'm not entirely sure if I used the right words (slow-/ fast-acting), since english is not my first language

I take 600mg a day and was up at 1200. There is no way you'd die. Probably get tachycardia though.
