Brief Answer:
Immediate medical attention is required.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Phenazepam is a powerful, long acting drug and is more stronger than Valium or Ativan.
125 g ( or even mg) is a fatal dose and immediate medical care is required.
A stomach wash is required to prevent further absorption or the drug and antidotes must be administered.
Hope I have answered your query.
Thanks
