dxm after opiates?

[burningrass]

this is my first post on this site so ill give a little background in my drug use. Ive been smoking bud since i was 13-14, twice a day usually. its my drug of choice. ive tried mushrooms once and loved it, used dxm twice, drink on the weekends only, and eat quite a bit of hydrocodone, and oxycodone, and just got 40 60mg codiene a couple days ago so far not a fan they are far to weak even at 300-360 mg i barely feel it. i usually eat 35-50mg of hydro, or 30-45mg oxy. im a big guy at 6 foot 4, and 278 so it takes more to mess me up.

so know for my question i ate 21.5mg hydro and 300mg of codiene at 11:30. would it be safe to take a low dose of dxm later around 7-8 around 200 mg i was thinking? Also does sertaline (zoloft) have any recreational effects? ive heard it does but im skeptical i was given 9 50mg pills. i was about to toss them but i wanted to check first.

no zoloft doesn't have recreational effects. You should really rethink the decisions you are making before making a crazy drug combo like that. Just looking out for ya. SSRIs such as Zoloft and DXM is also very dangerous is mix, as it can have the potential to cause serotonin syndrome from what I believe. If you still have opiates lingering in your body and you ingest DXM, you could potentially have a chance of respiratory arrest, causing asphyxiation due to synergy or you could passout and vomit, which is another way of dying from asphyxiation. If you are prescribed to Zoloft, skip the DXM, but if you've somehow managed to just find the zoloft, leave it alone and do the DXM some other day when you have plenty of time and have no work the day after, but who know what would happen. I'm only thinking of the worst possible scenario that could happen.

Be safe man.

thanks for the advise. i wasnt planning on mixing dxm and zoloft it was a totally different question. they were given to me by a friend i just wanted to make sure they were useless before i tossed them. i guess ill hold off on the dxm for the night though

Sertraline has absolutely no recreational effects in any way, shape, or form.

Taking DXM would be no problem given the time you've ingested the opioids. Taking sertraline with DXM however, could be a disaster and a fine recipe for serotonin syndrome.

Good luck.

I take 100mgs of zoloft daily for depression and have used dxm many times with absolutely no adverse side affects however zoloft offers no recreational value, toss them things bro

^Just because you were fine, it doesn't make it a safe combination. From a pharmacological point of view, it's a disaster waiting to happen.

To clear any ambiguities:

Talk to your doctor before using dextromethorphan together with sertraline. Combining these medications can increase the risk of a rare but serious condition called the serotonin syndrome, which may include symptoms such as confusion, hallucination, seizure, extreme changes in blood pressure, increased heart rate, fever, excessive sweating, shivering or shaking, blurred vision, muscle spasm or stiffness, tremor, incoordination, stomach cramp, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience these symptoms while taking the medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
