dxm in low doses

what's a nice low dose of dxm I can take to were I won't have any bad effects (like throwing up or anything like that.) but I will still get a nice high from it. 150mg? more? I ate 255mg in tussin gel caps and I got nauseas and puked quite a bit. I'd really rather that not happen again

Well if you puked at 255 mg then that sucks, cuz that's around where I'd suggest It had to do with the gel caps though (guaifenesin), not so much the DXM itself. DXM extractions are super easy. Try that, or just try finding a source of DXM with no other additives in it.

I don't know wether or not you can get it in the states but in the UK there are websites you can buy the pure powder from. It's a much better way to ingest, I poured 500mg into a small shot of whisky and it was great

I had that same problem before, switch to liquid cough medicine. It sucks to drink a bottle or 2 of syrup, but I didn't get the nausea (as bad) when I switched over

Make sure your product has only DXM HBr in it, no guaifenesin or anything like that because they will cause nausea. That means either finding straightup Robitussin Gel Caps (the little red guys) or Robitussin Cough & Cold, which would be syrup. Check to make sure it's only DXM by checking the "Active Ingredients" on the back.
Now if your product is already DXM-only, I would say that unfortunately it just sounds like it isn't for you...your body might just not react well to the weird motion thing DXM has going on.

yeah under 'Active Ingredients' it only say dxm 15mg per gel cap. I ate down like 17 of them (255mg) with a cup of kool aid. and I got real nauseas and tried not to puke. but I ended up doing so. I was tripping pretty nicely though.. on my way to the bathroom to puke as it was coming out the toilet was closed so I went for the shower and knocked my head into the shower door haha But afterwords I felt good. I'd just rather not Puke again hah

Oh ok I thought you were puking for a while. If you only puked once then that may be because of the fillers in the gelcaps or it may be because of the actual drug effects...personally I've never felt sick from gelcaps, only syrup, despite the fact that gelcaps supposedly have more fillers.

That there is the best DXM guide you'll find. Section five includes dosage by body weight as well as effects at different plateaus. It says in there where people feel nausea if they're going to, and I believe it is when entering the second plateau. If you need an explanation on the plateaus, that's in there too.

yeah it was only one time during the trip I puked. I was a bit paranoid after due to other people being in my house. Even though I don't think they knew. and somehow I fell asleep about 40minutes to an hour after I vomited. I'm gunna try just to get some LSD if it's available. or shrooms, but their a but pricey at the moment. dxm is cheap and available that's basically I'd wanna do it
