1st post long time reader. i was wondering if it were possible for swim to go to his pharmacy (canada) and pick up some otc codeine and otc prometh and combine them to urself to try and achieve the high of the syrup? in a way make your own syrup? does any1 know if they make an otc liquid prometh? sorry if this was out of line or in the wrong place.
 
Welcome to Bluelight!

Please, don't refer to "Swim" or any other false identity when speaking about yourself. It's confusing and illegal. I've made the same mistake too, it's all good.

I got high on codeine before, the hangover made the experience inadaquate. Rather be sober than "warm and fuzzy" for a few hours, later overwhelmed by dysphoria.

The problem with getting high on cough syrups is all the unwanted ingredients found in them. Flavoring, acetaminophen, alcohol, anti-histamines and possibly more.

If you're going to resort to these desperate measures at least make sure codeine is the ONLY active ingredient inside. You can enlighten yourself by easily checking the package, look under "Drug Information."

Mixing alcohol with opiates isn't recommended. They put so much stress on your liver alone, why combine them?

Acetaminophen is tylanol, doesn't get you high. Adds more challenge to your liver.

Consuming over 50 mgs of promethazine at once isn't only hazordous, it's pointless.

Promethazine is just a sedative anti-histamine with arguably no recreational value:

Anti-histamines combat histamines to reduce nausea. Histamines are responsible for itch, dizziness, vomit-sensations and the like.

I found this out by simply Googling. Yes, it really was that easy.

Please, educate yourself before experimenting. :)

Hello and welcome to Bluelight from London \o/

As Cuhpcakes has said, we don't use SWIM on Blue Light, it's against the forum rules. It doesn't provide you with any protection and is just frustrating to read.

I can't really add to much more than what Cuhpcakes has said about Codeine/Prometh. The ratio of Prometh/Codeine in syrups is actually at an undesirable amount. You don't really want to ingest more than 50mg of Prometh with your Codeine, so if you do decide to make your own mix, don't use more than 50mg of Prometh. As a liquid form... I've never actually seen it available in OTC, just tablet form. Why'd you want liquid - any particular reason?

Don't feel shy to ask anything if you're new to taking them, it's much better that you ask before doing something stupid. Here at Bluelight we have a big focus on harm-reduction so if you are going to take drugs, I think of it as my duty as a member to try and make it as safe as can be for you.

Enjoy your stay!
