What Is A Lethal Amount Of Morphine?

It varies based on body weight, and they don't really report it as a guaranteed to kill or lethal amount as people metabolize differently. What they will do is report a LD50, or a dose that is likely to be lethal to 50% of patients if provided at that does.

Frankly, this is also the kind of question where I am reticent to actually answer that, as I don't know the intention behind the question, and you should never be at a point where that much medication is being provided to you.

Depends on the person. There may be a specific number in the toxicology world but there are a ton of factors including body weight, opioid tolerance, other stimulants, etc.
