DXM dosage?

I plan on giving robotripping a second attempt. My first time was...uncomfortable to say the least. It was regular delsym (orange flavor maybe?) and I only drank maybe a third of the bottle and I was experiencing very strong alcohol like effects (guessing second plateau) for around 14 hours. I'm not sure why I tripped so hard for so long without actually doing very much but I'd like to give it another shot. I have "Robitussin Long-Acting CoughGels" dosed at 15mg DXM per gelcap with no other active ingredients. I weigh roughly 150lbs and I'm slightly nervous of hitting a third plateau level with a relatively low dose. Sources around the web tell me I want around 300mg to get a good second plateau effect. But I believe I did much less than that with my first attempt. Do any of you have thoughts or comments as I am actively looking for input.

Thanks in advance! :)

YOu were gone for 14 hours because Delsym is time released, DXM Polistirex whereas the preferable form is straight DXM HBr... you should really read the DXM FAQ which can be found HERE

If you weigh 150lbs and you want to hit the 2nd plateau you should proably go with 350-400mg, you'd risk hitting the 3rd plateau if you get near the 500mg mark. And for chirsts sake don't take fuckin' Delsym, find yourself some gelcaps or a syrup that contains only DXM HBr.
 
DXM polystrex (deslym) has a coating around it that extends the release time, so it's weaker but lasts longer. I've never tried the polystrex form but I'd prefer the hbr form as DXM already lasts a quite long time and hbr is stronger. sop take a cough medicine that has only DXM hbr as active ingredient and with some simple math find out how much drug is in it.then take 200-300 mg.
I took approx. 150-200 mgs my first time and it was a nice feeling but quite underwhelming.
I find that DXM and alcohol are really good to mix at these doses because while you're on DXM you have to drink less to get fuxked up.also off you feel agitated or start to freak out a few beers could help taking the edge off of the"trip".
this applies to small doses,I would strongly recommend not to mix alcohol and dissociatives at high doses as it can lead to serious problems.
if cannabis doesn't make you anxious I would strongly recommend it with DXM, it helps greatly with the possible nausea (never got any but it's possible).and increases the body relaxation, pay attention tough as it will intensify the trip
hope this was helpful, have a good trip :)
