Your question implies much probability of a mistake on your part so don't hesitate to call your doctor at once for help.

If the medication is a form of tablet or capsule, while waiting for an immediate response of your doctor, read the "antidote" for the medications (found in the labelling of the medication) that you take in and have them ready. If this is not available surf in the internet for its "antidote".

The time factor of your actions to overcome this problem is very important dending on the degree of medication overdose, so take appropriate actions.

go to the ER or make yourself throw up

If you know you've overdosed, you should call your doctor or go to the emergency room right away. They could pump your stomach. It also depends on what you've overdosed on- tylenol and antibiotics, don't do a whole lot to you besides making you throw up and feel really crappy, but you should still tell someone if you've overdosed.

Throw up Call 911

No...You would just be a nutcase if you overdosesd...

are you too poor or stupid to have a cell phone to call 9-11?
