It would cause sedation
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic. I, Dr Abhishek Kapoor, would help you in this query.
Maximum dose of olanzapine a day is 20mg, but in some cases, even 30mg has been given. If any one takes 30mg at a time, who is not on same drugs for longer period, then it would lead to excessive sedation and that sedation would be over in a day. Olanzapine does not lead to serious side effects like dystonia, rigidity or slurring of speech, but sometime, such side effects happen. In case, your patient gets any of these side effects, then consult a psychiatrist immediately. Otherwise, just wait for few hours and by the time, sedative effect will over, everything would be fine.
In case, you have more query, you can ask.

Consult a psychiatrist, you need help.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Escitalopram has high therapeutic index, so it is a safer drug. I don't know why you are asking this weird question. If you have any intention of self harm, then better to consult a psychiatrist. I think, you may have suicidal ideation and needs immediate inpatient management. I wouldn't answer your query or recommend you to do any self harm.
If you have more query, you can ask.
