Lethal doses are usually measured in something like grams per kilogram of body weight.\n\nYou can find the lethal dose of marijuana at http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/mj_overdose.htm\n\nThe lowest estimate is about one-third your body weight. The highest is 1,500 pounds - consumed in fifteeen minutes.\n\nIf by "overdose" you mean "enough to make you uncomfortable", that depends on the person. Novices can experience it quite readily. Experienced users can consume large quantities with no apparent ill effects -- other than going to sleep of wanting to eat.\n\nFor heroin, the "overdose" amount (that which will kill) is open to question. For inexperienced users, the amount can be fairly small. Addicts, on the other hand, can take quite large doses of pure heroin with no ill effects. See, for example, Chapter 12. The "heroin overdose" mystery and other occupational hazards of addiction at http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/Library/studies/cu/cu12.htm\n\nIt is believed that most cases of heroin "overdose" in the US are really the result of impurities in the black market heroin. See the article linked above for a fuller explanation.\n\nOverdose deaths from cocaine are actually fairly low in the US - a few thousand per year -- about the same number as die from common drugs like Tylenol.

Crack is a rocked up form of cocain that people smoke to get high..  Dope can be a bunch of different types of drugs.. that is a blanket term.

Drugs are substances that cause a physical or mental change in your body. If they are used therapeutically, they get classed as pharmaceuticals.

Wow i actually had to go read the article because i didn't believe it was true! That is the most insane thing I've seen in a long time. It's also kind of odd that personal use is defined as four joints but 2.2 pounds of peyote, 25 milligrams of heroin, or 4 lines of cocaine. It makes you wonder if the officials there have their hands all in the hard drug market. I hate to say but most people who buy weed buy more than 4 joints worth at once. Also i remember a few years ago watching something on TV about the problem of Cali kids crossing the borders and drinking over there in Mexico so now the can go do a line, roll on X or shot a little heroine before coming home. What a ridiculous thing. Heroine ruins lives. My dad was on it way back before i was born but he stayed on methadone till he died. One trip to the methadone clinic is all it takes to show you what happens when you do heroine. you know that big tall fence idea is sounding better by the minute.

Information you are looking is really hard to find, drugs are illegal so there isn't any legal refrence shows the amount of them, many of them like Amphetamines and LSD are lab products and don't import.\nThere are estimations but most of them are rough.

Yes, drugs are broken down by the body and excreted. These byproducts tell which drug you have taken whether oxy, hydro, morphine, heroin or valium.

You should only take the amount proscribed by your doctor. Your doctor selected that dosage for a reason. A person can overdose on many drugs, not just the illegal ones.

Are you really asking this? On here?  Isn't there a category for "Drug Dealers and USers"?

Dangerous, no. Gateway, not exactly. My idea of a gateway drug is the drug that you first got high with. So in some cases it may be weed, in others it's cocaine and harder stuff. And as far as it's being dangerous, no one has ever overdosed on weed. It's only dangerous when you mix it with cocaine and other substances. My suggestion to you, Smoke 'em if you got 'em.
