Robitussin High

[Dave8722]

I drank a bottle of Robitussin with only DXM as main ingredient, in the bottle there was ~350mg Dectromethorphan HBR. I read on erowid about people's experiences and where i weight 180 pounds, a guy who weights the same claims to have drunk the same exact bottle and gone so high it changed his life he said. I've eaten 16 Coricidin pills before with friends but I don't recommend it, it amounts to the same but it's certainly much worse for you and I didn't get particularly high. Perhaps I have a natural tolerance for DXM. Is that possible?

It sounds like it would be my drug of choice if it got me high. It's none too expensive, if I could find pure DXM pills I imagine I would need to find some and take lots. Well anyway I drank a whole bottle and only felt the pull of gravity through out my body a little which disappeared whenever I was aware of it, I also had a good deal of trouble walking but I certainly didn't trip!

Has anyone had a similar experience and do you think I should take more? I've read that 600-1500mg is a 'heavy' dose and I think pills are mostly sold in a dose of around 350mg so I under the impression I'd taken 700mg which should have been the ticket!?

I'm looking for a '3rd plateau' experience you see like the time I ate a eighth of high quality shrooms and it had the best day of my life so I'm hoping for something like that...

Any comments would be nice thanks!

Hey! I'm a 17 year old female: 130 pounds --- a few nights ago , I took 11 Coricidin pills (for the first time) thinking that I was going to have a good trip... well, an hour later... nothing... 2 hours later, my legs felt light, the next hour... i get horrible hot / cold flashes - where my face was hot as hell and the rest of my body freezing. And that was the end of my trip! How disappointing...

I figure I'll take more next time (16)... but I think it's strange that all my male friends take 8 and report feeling euphoria and all that good stuff... and all i get is chills and light feet?!

Like Dave... I think I may somehow have a natural tolerance for DXM?!

To 17yr old female - please read this warning from erowid and check those trip reports! There have been loads of side effects and people ending up in the emergency room etc

It may be that you had a lucky escape here!

SPECIAL WARNING - Coricidin Cough and Cold

There are many over-the-counter products which contain DXM. Most contain additional active ingredients which are best avoided at high doses. The higher the dose, the more likely problems are. One product which has caused problems for many people is Coricidin Cough and Cold which contains DXM and Chlorpheniramine Maleate. If you are using DXM recreationally, avoid using Coricidin Cough and Cold as your DXM source.

We have collected a few reports (http://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.cgi?A=Search&S1=22&S2=164) specifically about people's experiences with Coricidin...

Yeah man Cordicin isn't good stuff. If you want the effects of DXM stick to Robitussin Extra Strength. The other brands dont have DXM as their primary ingridient. Cordicin and some of the other shit has Aspirates. Stick with Robitussin.

Hey guys, I just found this site because I was looking to see how much I need to take to get high on Robitussin weighing 123 pounds. I only want to reach the low second plateau, or high first plateaus, which is around 2.5 mg of Coricidin per Kilo of my weight.

However the first time I did it (two weeks ago) I found out I may have developed a dependancy on Coricidin so I've still got a cold, and I'm doing Robitussin now.

This is how it is on DXM high, to my knowledge, there are 4 plateaus, meaning each level of high effects aren't increased but change dramatically.

The first is a feeling of power, increased motor skills, and slight euphoria, perhaps tingling.

Second is double vision, bad short term memory, euphoria, inability to walk, and enlarged pupils (pupils stay big from here on).

Third plateau is anxiety, a desire to not be involved in a group, fidgeting, seeing those little lights move when you close your eyes, hard time keeping up. Fourth...well don't go there you can get a brain hemorrhage. Anyways you got to level 3 and got anxious so you had a bad trip, lose all fear and you're good. They got to the low second plateau so they were good.

I've had my share of Robitussin drinking. I dont see why in the world you would not get high from a whole 350 ml bottle. My friends and I use to go steal bottles from the Pharmacie and drink only half and be flying for 6 hours. DXM is a strong ingredient and you should be feeling high.

Once i took it with about 6 friends and for some off reason we all started itching now my freinds had self control but i lost it. I scratched and scratched until my whole body was a rash, my friends held my hands because I was almost bleeding but I had such a huge urge to scratch that I punched my good buddy in the face. They put me in a bath and put cream all over my body.

DXM can be very dangerous, it has many side effects. For example my friend took it one night while we were all on speed she was broke. She felt nothing but ended up pucking PINK all night. The next day at around 6 (11 hour later) she smoked a big fatty and the DXM buzz hit her like a bullet 11 hour later! She was buzzed out of her mind for 6 hours! So watch out when you do that stuff you never know. And as for pure DXM pills my friend had a seizure on it on the bus, then ambulance and everything.

So yeah it's fun, its cheap but if you wanna get high you might as well go buy yourself some weed. You can never go wrong with weed!

[chicada]

Dextromethorphan is a funny drug. about 2% of people can't metabolise it at all due to lacking a certain enzyme. for some this means they dont experience any effects at all when taking dxm. for others it means they can trip for 7 days on 2mg/kg (a small 1st plateau dose) and probably risk severe psychological damage in the process.

it also appears to be linked to hppd (Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder) from what i've researched on the subject.

funny that you can buy this stuff over the counter in many countries because it's an effective cough suppressant, despite the fact that it's a rather dangerous and sinister synthetic drug. while things like lsd which are actually more safe (if used responsibly) and have far greater possibilities in medicine (particularly as a cure for addiction) are prohibited.

there's a ton of more general dxm info here;

[General Lighting]

TBH it sounds like filthy shit - I wouldn't take it even if I was ill

this is almost more fucked up stories than our heroin thread - seems like a lot of young people have been involved in nightmarish experiences which could have lasting effects and permanently damage friendships (if you attack your friend on drugs he/she is always going to be a bit wary of you from then on even if you make up afterwards)

I notice a lot of the posters are from the USA where drug laws are stricter

this is the reality of the war on drugs

people doing themselve more damage because of prohibition

[succexy baby]

i just did robo for the first time last night at my party, and my parents were there totally supervising, whatev i could control myself but it was pretty sweet, it was the weirdest feeling it wasn't anything like being high or drunk it was completely different i felt the greatest i ever felt in my life i would definatly do it again, but stick to robo sounds like that other shit gives you problems

So glad you have found us:bigsmile:

[xpillpopper]

I can't imagine what the first person in this thread was thinking: "Maybe if I drink this whole bottle instead of the recommended amount..." some fucking genius!

I mean this shit's on a completely different level to other drugs in that there are 4 fucking plateaus to it!

The sad part is all the trip reports I've heard sound like a fucking Tim Burton movie script.

I've had nothing but good times! Also people aught to beware of the CCCs

I know they might be easier to grab off a shelf, but Jesus you fiends! It's like 5 USD!

I can just asking my mother to buy me some, bahahah!

Usually she would find out about a crafty drug scheme like this and get all crazy! I'm a simple man trying to get high...

[miss bassets]

i really wanna try this buzz out but really no naff al bout it.... ne suggestions? is robitussin the safest option ?xXx

[Meltown]

this sounds dirty and dangerous, ill stick to sumint decent

if the goverment legalised rugs then no one wud bother going to all the trouble and risk their health for sum shity cold medicen high if you cud by what ever u wanted from the pharmacy,

there are much beter things u can buyt legaly than cold medicene, try "fly agaric" (search it on google) boil up a big brew of tea with them in a have a nice decent healty trip

also if u havnt done any propper rugs the legal high pills are quite good, but more dangerous than the real McCoy

[BigAndy]

did ths once quite a while ago, fuckin horrible sickly drunk too much and smoke a killa bifta kinda feelin. wont be doin it again and would not recommend anyone to either.

One word: WOW. I cannot believe you just suggested 'fly agaric' aka Amanitas, a fucking deleriant, as a safer means to get high than DXM. Firstly, anything can dangerous when used it with ignorance, having said this, Amanitas are just as dangerous if not more (go to the woods and pick the wrong mushroom and you will violently vomit and shit until you die a slow poisoned death). If anyone is looking to get into DXM, someone from this site refered me to this great web site - www.third-plateau.org

[xpillpopper]

I suggest: Robotussin Extra Strength. If you're not the type to handle tasting sirup, you can get the gel caps and depending on how much of a mind fuck you're looking for you can reach the lower 2 plateaus with around a 350mg-450mg dose.

If you haven't done DXM before I certainly don't suggest trying to reach the 3rd or 4th plateau (which I get to at around a 900mg dose) until you know your general tolerance level to the drug (every one is different, I always start low working my way up the ladder) .

Beware this is not a drug to be underestimated.

The fact that it's legally available does not make it safe!

http://www.third-plateau.org/dangers/coricidin.shtml

[Raj]

.the fact that it's legal makes it no safer.

absolutely correct; some of the legal ones are far more dangerous than some of the illegal ones
nicotine [one of the most toxic contact poisons in the world] springs to mind as does methadone[more toxic than the heroin it replaces] and paracetamol [overdose destroys your organs and no one can do anything except watch you die in agony after your body has absorbed it]

treat ALL drugs with caution and if you are going to take something for a buzz/high/kicks please be sure to do your homework on it and have a buddy to do it with in case something goes wrong and you need assistance

ideally the buddy should be a trusted mate and able to deal calmly with any crisis and know what to expect

for drugs information check here as a starting point:

k thanx for all ur advice peps im def gunna take heedn get more clued up on it b4 i try. iv plenty experience wit other rugs n have a weak spot for nethin trippy,:crazy_fre cid is my rug of choice by far but im always lookin to explore new buzz's n this 1 sounds like it cud b rite up my street!!

I've been looking a bit into this. Check out the robitussin pastilles that they do on this site. They contain 7.5mg of dextromethorphan hydrobromide.

The rest of the ingredients just look like sweetners etc to me and no nasties in there.

Can anyone confirm this?

[Raj]

Each pastille contains:

Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide 7.5 mg

Also contains: Levomenthol, Acesulphame Potassium, Cherry Flavour, Natural Flavours, Propylene Glycol, Vegetable Oil, Beeswax, Purified Water, Gelatin, Dimethyl Siloxane, Mono and Di Glycerides, Methylcellulose, Polyethlene Glycol Stearate, Xanthan Gum, Benzoic Acid, Polyethylene Glycol, Sorbic Acid, Maltitol, Sorbitol, Amaranth.

thats the active ingredient dextromethropan and in order separated by commas as above:

local anaesthetic, sweetener, flavouring [prob synthetic], flavours [likely nature identical], an alcohol, oil, binding agent , water, gelling agent, an oil, oil derivatives, bulking agent, oil, binding agent, preservative, oil, preservative, sweetener, sweetener, probable bulking agent

be aware that most of the oils are probably acting as preservatives and binding agents in this formula though some of them taste sweet too:crazy_fre

none of these ingredients are toxic in small quantites as they have had to pass FDA licensing and most have been around for a while

THe reason you felt that way is cuz you took WAY too many.. on your first time take 6-8 and you'll feel fine

[howgroovyisthat]

kk i juss got lil gel pills of robitussin. how much to i take to get to the 'platau" or w/e that makes ur pupils big?

have a read through the thread, i think how much you take depends on your body weight. have a look at http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/dxm/ before you have a go and be carefull if your gonna go ahead.
good luck:smile:

[howgroovyisthat]

i did the robtussin
not as good as the syrup
i'll stick with 3c's :love:

[xpillpopper]

if you want to get twisted off tussin drink a bottle and smoke some weed. that brings it to a whole new level.. i cant get high off of it anymore unless i smoke weed with it, its pretty cool.

[jakethesnake388]

people that robotrip are just to cheap to buy the ganga. taking that shit is terrible for you because of all the extra stuff that is in there. It makes your memory even worse than pot does and has even worse side effects. FUCK THAT SHIT!

[binge]

Considering they asked about 5 years ago, I figure whoever started this thread probably knows what they are doing by now!!

I wonder why the Yanks always feel like they have to tell us their weight! (It's not like we understand anyway as it's always in bloody lbs!)

This isn't directly to you, but anyone out there reading. I was hooked on robitussin for over a year of my life, stealing every day because I could no longer afford to actually buy the amount I was consuming. I strongly advise against this drug or any drug for that matter for anyone who sees signs of addiction (or an addictive personality) in any aspect of their life. It took me a long time to free myself from that urge to escape from day to day life with drugs. Now I suffer from severe digestive issues which I attribute to be directly caused from constantly overdosing on robitussin, and in the early stages coricidin.

With the general symptoms I show no doctor has yet been able to determine the exact cause, but I can assure you I am suffering now for all of the fun I had then. Also, it was coricidin in the beginning which I started using around 14 that I believe was the trigger of my depression, which I still battle with every day, and which I was medicated for for several years. Because I was young and just wanted to feel better I did not research side effects of depression medications I was prescribed. I trusted my doctors to only want the best for me.

Now I have been told that I cannot have children naturally due to a hormonal imbalance caused by medications. I know to all of you this sounds like a sob story of one of the guest speakers at your high school, and I would have thought the same in my prime, but I am 19 years old, sober after years of addiction. All I am suggesting is a complete awareness and understanding of the things you put into your body.

And PLEASE do not overdose on coricidin to get high people. Even doing just a bit of research I was able to pull up this information about the active ingredient in coricidin cough and cold which is potentially leathal.

"Chlorpheniramine Maleate

* High doses of Chlorpheniramine Maleate (CPM) can cause severe and life-threatening symptoms including seizures; shortness of breath or troubled breathing; weakness; loss of consciousness; severe dryness of mouth, nose, or throat; bleeding from skin, mouth, eyes, rectum, and vagina; and possibly death.
* We have seen recommendations that no more than 24 mg of CPM be taken in a day."

If you decide not to heed warning, then at least take this advice. Robitussin usually has DXM as it's only active ingredient. If you don't feel like drinking a bunch of shitty cough syrup then they also make these nifty little things called gel caps. The only draw back is that you have to take twice as many robitussin cough gels as you would coricidin to get the same effect.

SAY NO TO DRUGS.
