They don't. The lethal sleeping pills that are still sometimes used as a plot device in works of fiction are the barbiturates, which are hardly ever prescribed anymore. You'd be hard pressed to kill yourself by ODing on Ativan or any other benzodiazepine; their safety is considered one of their big plusses.
