An oral dose of 50 mg atropine sulfate in humans has been reported to be fatal, but exact data on lethal doses of scopolamine are lacking. Ingestion of 10 mg has been reported to be lethal in children, whereas adults have survived more than 100 mg. A dose of 0.45 mg of scopolamine (five drops of a 0.25% scopolamine ophthalmic solution) has caused toxic psychosis which lasted 10 days. However, it is not clear if this involved oral or ocular administration. In addition, the source of this statement cannot be verified.

Don't use scopolamine to get high. Its not euphoric, it just makes you delirious and you could do stupid things when intoxicated and end up in jail or hospital.
 
^ this.

LD50s aren't always a good gauge of individual toxicity; it's the dose that is lethal in 50% of cases - some people might die from a much lower amount - plus it is often extrapolated from animal studies and therefore is inaccurate when applied to humans.

Scopolamine is not at all recreational and as polymath said it can cause delirium, which is extremely unpleasant, and can induce psychosis.

for HR I would recommend you to not use scopolamine to try to get high/trip.

get yourself some Datura if your lookin for delirium

...say what?

Scopolamine is the main psychoactive in Datura. Also smaller amounts of hyoscyamine, and atropine.
That's sort of like saying "Morphine is dangerous; take opium instead."
 
You might want to look into using Diphenylhydramine, easy to get, easy to regulate your dose. You probably already know this but 1) deliriants are all extremely toxic and 2) make sure you have a friend around in case you're at risk of harming yourself or others. Physostigmine is used as an antidote for deliriant overdoses so if you can get hold of some it would be wise to have it around, preferably giving it to somebody else to look after for you.
 
please don't try to get high on scoplamine
If you do so - try to make sure someone else knows what you're up to so they can get help if needed. Don't do this on your own its a serious risk to your health
 
Thanks for the posts guys. Mcgrady3 summed it up really! Good info too pharm-boy, but I would not advocate treating an overdose of that nature yourself - seek medical attention as the person should be under the care of a medical professional <3

This thread is kinda old and the OP's unlikely to come back to check it now, so I'm going to close it - things move fast in here, see the "state of BDD" sticky :)

Best to comment on current, active threads.

Closed, PM me with any queries...
