| The LD<sub>50</sub> for DOM is unknown. Overdose on DOM can start past the heavy dose range. Overdose effects typically include bizzare, [[delusion|delusional]] and sometimes violent behavior, [[amnesia]], [[tactile suppression|numbness]], [[confusion]] and [[anxiety]]. The user may not be able to communicate and can be severely agitated. At appropriately high doses, more serious side effects include [[panic attacks]], [[seizures]], dangerously [[increased heart rate|elevated heart rate]], [[increased blood pressure|blood pressure]] and [[vasoconstriction]].{{citation needed}} Severe vasoconstriction typically develops to its peak several hours into the intoxication and may need medical assistance if blood flow is significantly cut off for extended periods of time.

| In the event of an overdose, [[benzodiazepines]] can be administered to mitigate the hyperagitative effects.{{citation needed}} A powerful vasodilator may also need to be administered to prevent a hypertensive emergency, or in more serious cases, necrosis, organ failure and death from the resulting hypoxia.{{citation needed}} As a result, emergency medical services should always be sought in the event of a DOM overdose.
