If anything is taken in overdose, the first thing to do is call an ambulance/take the patient to the nearest A&E.
Overdoses of opiates (which includes morphine) can cause respiratory arrest - this is where the connection between your brain and your lungs fails to tell your lungs to breath. The worst case is you can die of lack of oxygen (I'm not sure whether this would technically be called "suffocation" or "asphyxiation"). There is also a possibility of surviving with some brain damage caused by lack of oxygen.

What over counter pills look match 100mg blue oblong morphine tablets?
The whole point of making tablets look different is so that people can identify them.The only reason I can think of for wanting to know this is so that you can disguise morphine tablets as something else, but:It won't fool anyone who actually knows enough about drugs to realize what those blue tablets are.Anyone who doesn't know enough about drugs to recognize them on sight can be fooled by just putting them in some generic aspirin bottle.
How you can calculate the maintenance dose in the formulation of controlled release tablets?
To calculate the maintenance dose in controlled release tablets, consider the desired therapeutic concentration, dosing interval, and half-life of the drug. The goal is to maintain a steady-state plasma concentration within the therapeutic range over the dosing interval. This can be achieved by adjusting the dose and release characteristics of the tablet formulation. Consulting pharmacokinetic principles and conducting in vitro and in vivo studies can help optimize the maintenance dose for controlled release tablets.
How does 30 mg time release morphine tablets make you feel..I mean this as in you have serious chronic pain and a high tolerance for anyall meds. If taking it for sever chronic pain how will you feel?
A time released morphine capsure will be released over a long period of time. This means it would be about the same as taking 1 mg every 45 minutes or so over a day(rough estimate). If you need a drug as strong as morphine to control your pain, time release would be a good option as you can have long lasting pain control without sufferering as much from side effects (dizziness, nausea) that you would get from taking a large dose of MS IR.
