So i want to take the lightest amount to start to feel good.

Its got Brompheniramine maleate 1mg, Dextromethorphan 5mg, and Phenylephrine HCI 2.5mg.

and of course like most things i do it will be taken before school

do u need anymore information?
 
If you are looking to get "feeling good" from the DXM. I would suggest you get a product that contains ONLY DXM. Many of the other chemicals found in cough syrups can be very very bad for you in large doses. And with this particular syrup only containing 5mg of DXM per dose, taking enough to make you "feel good" would be giving you very high doses of the other two chemicals.

Just as a disclaimer. Taking any type of over the counter cough syrup in an attempt to get high is a very bad idea. OTC cough remedies should not be used other than as directed.
 
dont take dimetapp. not only is it weak, but you dont wanna ingest all the other shit in high doses. do yourself a favor and get a bottle of robitussin cough gels. 300mg is perfect for your first time. in fact i really dont find any point in going over the 300-500mg range. of course im not a dissociative man myself haha.
 
there is NO way its worth it. 5mg/ml is a very low amount. just please dont risk it. i guarantee youll not only regret, but i doubt youll even feel the DXM. just wait and hit up your local grocery store and make sure to get a DXM ONLY syrup/gels. none of that ccc shit.

plus i dont think you can be a DXM light weight. most people start with AT LEAST 150mg. thats probably more than there is in that whole bottle.
 
I would need to take 100 of those pills to reach a 2nd plateau.....invest in something much more strong and dxm-containing only
 
Don't do it. If you plan on consuming a product with DXM in it, get a product that only has DXM as the active ingredient. Dimetapp Cold and Cough has two other active ingredients, one being brompheniramine maleate, which is a powerful first-generation antihistamine and can cause some nasty effects at high doses.

I don't want to sound too preachy, but a lot of people I knew in high school got really into DXM with CPM (in the form of Coriciden), and it really fucked them up in the long term. I know the DXM was partly to blame, but the CPM (also a powerful first-generation antihistamine) had a lot to do with it. Dimetapp is along the same lines, DXM + antihistamine.

In the interest of harm reduction use a product that contains DXM as the only active ingredient.

Erowid has a wealth of information on DXM in OTC products, and other ingredients that may or may not be in these OTC products. I recommend you read this page:
