There have been no documented cases of death from LSD overdose. (There was one reported, but it was later found to NOT be LSD that caused her death). However, overlarge quantities of LSD can cause severe hallucinations, panic attacks, and suicidal feelings.

∙ 11y agoNo. You can die if you do something stupid while on it, but i don't think you'd be able to afford the lethal dose of it.
Also, despite urban legends about spinal column build up and crystals, or flashbacks from cracking your back, LSD is out of your system in about half an hour. It's completely water soluble and cannot crystallize or stay in your body. The real trip is how something that passes that fast can affect you for 8-18 hours. It really is all in your head.
To be safe make sure you have a good set and setting, as well as a trusted trip-sitter. If you don't know what those are, take a read around www.erowid.org or Google them.

∙ 13y agoYou can die from LSD just like any drug it is good but bad for you and can kill you in a heart beat.
I don't know where your getting your information from but you can be anymore wrong. I am not a doctor and not claiming to be, but I have done some research on this. No there is no claim on any death on LSD ( besides from killing your self from a bad trip ). But other than that this person said "You can die from LSD just like any drug" um ya can you please find a death from marijuana, because I am pretty sure there is no death EVER recorded from the use of marijuana.

∙ 14y agoThe amount of LSD needed to cause a life-threatening overdose is so great that the average user is at virtually no risk of overdose. However, taking too great of an amount can lead to a very unpleasant experience that may cause a great deal of psychological distress.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoSince the lethal dosage of LSD is so large compared to recreational dosages, it is extremely unlikely that LSD will be directly lethal. However, it may cause psychological effects which can lead to suicide and fatal accidents.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoYes, it is possible to overdose on hallucinogens, but the safety varies widely based on the specific drug. LSD and psilocybin are exceedingly unlikely to be lethal, whereas deliriants like datura and nightshade are easily fatal in an overdose.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNo. You can not overdose off of LSD. There have been cases where people have consumed ungodly amounts of LSD without dying. This does not mean you should go out and try illegal drugs that can mess up your brain and cause you to be permanently psychotic.

However no human deaths have ever occurred because of LSD. There have been some cases where people have killed themselves, but the substance itself hasn't caused physical deaths. (Of course ego deaths are totally different case.

Is there overdose in LSD?
An overdose of LSD substantial enough to cause life-threatening physical symptoms is thousands of times the recreational dose, and therefore is not typically a risk to the average user. However, LSD may certainly cause frightening psychological effects and a risk for dangerous behavior when ingested in excess.

Can you die from mixing acid and cocaine?
yes you can you might overdose and die. my advice dont do itA different answer...There no known synergistic effect between cocaine and LSD 25. And while is it conceivably possible to acute overdose on cocaine (the dosage would likely have to be astronomical), LSD is active at such a low dosage, that a lethal overdose is probably impossible. As the combination is not reactive, there is little if no danger of LSD and cocaine interacting to cause an acute overdose.Cocaine's damage to the human physiology occurs over time, and is sometimes irreparable. Notably attacked are cardiovascular and pulmonary systems.
