Brief Answer:
No it's not

Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HCM.

Trika is Alprazolam and is a benzodiazepine drug. Fortunately the benzodiazepine drugs are safe drugs and are rarely fatal.

She has consumed 50 tablets of 0.5 mg that is 25 mg tablet and this is not a fatal dose. No need to worry about that.

Thanks and Take care.
