My stomach is super sensitive to DXM, but I love it?

This is kinda long.. but I kinda need to give background info for anyone to help me. BTW, I'm only 95lbs, female. So I'm a definite light weight....
So, I've taken DXM a few times, and I've found that I'm starting to get really sensitive to it. I take the Robitussin Cough Gels 15mg.
The first time I took 9 (135mg), and it was the worst experience of my life, until I got home where I was comfortable, and then it wasn't bad. I threw up at the beginning of the trip and once the next day. Second time I took 14 (210 mg) and it was awesome, I'd say 2nd plateau trip. Again, I threw up at the beginning of the trip, and then once the next day.

The third time was last night, and I only took 5 (75mg) and I also smoked about 3/4 a gram of weed. *Note: I had a completely empty stomach*. The trip was the same as the second time. I REALLY loved it. But I got super, super sick. Vomiting and really bad diarrhea (sorry, I know that's gross). I was sick until noon today when the affects completely wore off and I took an anti-diarrhea.
I did NOT have that glua-something drug in it that fucks up your stomach, just DXM.

I don't know why I would get that sick from 75mg...
I also began to trip and threw up a few weeks ago from taking 4 Up & Up (Target brand) night time cold pills. I only took 4! Spread out by 3 hours, too. I wasn't even trying to abuse it, all I was doing was trying to stop my damn cold!

Also, I don't really have a sensitive stomach in general. I've never even thrown up from alcohol. And I always drink vodka, and get plenty drunk.




So, any advice on how I can prevent myself from getting so sick when I take DXM?
Does other medicine with DXM that's OTC and cheap, have less side affects?


The trip is just.... magical. I don't wanna give it up just because my stomach is a pussy :/
 
I don't have experience with DXM, except as coughmedicine..

What i read is that you are trying to get high from medicine, which could be the issue.


Maybe try to get a pure powder, to see if the addings to the pills are the thing giving your stomach problems. If you still get nauseaus during comeup, try plugging :D

Not that i have any experience plugging any drugs, but i read a great bit of things about it here on BL.

Kind (antichristmas) regards

the stuff in cough medicine is bad for your liver and hard on your stomach - eating my dwindle the effects of DXM but getting high off medicine (especially cough syrup - tons of acetaminophen) is not good for you - try eating before you gulp that shit down or find some pure DXM
 
Space out your dosing by taking the gelcaps 1 at a time. It sucks that the gels now only have 15 mg instead of 30 so if i want a deep 4th plateau trip i have to take 70 and take ginger root extract to not throw it all up. See if your local vitamin shop has any ginger mixtures to help with nausea. If you can get your hands on any promethazine this has worked well for me but I'm not sure about the safety of it. Another option is to just give your body more time to recover. Sometimes if I use for multiple days in a row I'll throw up even if i just take 300mg because my body knows its bad for me. You might also look into Delsym if you have a lot of time on your hands because I havent vomited even with 888mg of that (probably because of the slow release). Everybody's different and who knows what your enzyme situation is like but hopefully this goes away and you're able to get back to tripping.
 
You may wish to consider acquiring DXM as a powder to reduce the other contaminats you're ingesting, which could be making this worse if they aren't causing it.

There is one report of plugging on erowid which suggests that it may result in diarrhoea. It may still be worth a try if you can't hold it orally.
 
Plugging DXM sounds not fun. Would you have to alter your dosage for plugging as opposed to oral? Also with plugging am I correct in thinking that the dxm would reach the brain unmetabolised so you would have no dxo? For some people this might be a good thing but I enjoy the mix of dxm and dxo. Also there is another metabolite that I cant remember that some people think could have some unknown synergistic effect with dxm and dxo.
 
Might wanna try anal instead of oral ;)

Pure powder is an option to reduce some nausea, but its probably the drug itself.

Take a small dose of antihistamine with it like dramamine.

Or switch to DXM's superior, ketamine. If you can find it. I can't anymore :/
 
As long as you're using syrup with just DXM, you can try an Agent Lemon extraction.

Or switch to Zicam shots or pure powder as stated above. Cannabis and antihistamines like Gravol/Benadryl help a lot (don't take too much)

Rectal administration avoids the hepatic first pass, but would be later metabolised to DXO
 
Hello everyone its my first post on BL.

The thing is I had the similar problem after 2 years from my first use of dxm (I'm on a break now , its 11 months now) I've used doses from 450 mg to 1600 mg.

After x trips i started to puke every time i upped my dose over 750 mg. The trip after puking was nothing like one without. Nothing worked for that issue (ginger,dmh,cannabis). But some time after i discovered that if you take a smaller (like 450 mg for me cos i am a big guy) dose before you ingest your full dose. Like 2 hours before. My stomac will be anesthetized to the point where there is now way to puke after main dose.


The problem is that the journey is different than when you ingest full dose without the previous booster. But i think it doesnt matter in p1 and p2.

Maby try this method if nothing works.

I posted cos i havnt seen anyone metion this metod before and i would be glad in the past if someone told me about it.

Have a great time.

I was actually trying to do that. I only took 75mg first. And then I was smoking weed while waiting another hour or so. And about at an hour and a half I got sick and then starting tripping.


Do you guys think the combination of weed and the dxm is what made me sick? Because I don't think if I took 75mg alone, I would feel anything.

Anyone have experience with weed and dxm at the same time? How did affect your stomach?
 
No I have not, that is true of any rectally administered substance.
I read that report too, and while it doesn't sound great, I've no reason to suspect that this would happen for everyone.

The first two times I had a very full stomach, only puked once that night and once the next day. Maybe it was just the empty stomach. It seemed like something more than that, but I'll try eating first like you said, and also spacing it out better. I'll let you guys know.
Thanks so much! I'm glad I joined.
 
Do you mix tobacco with your weed? I find that tobacco significantly increases nausea on DXM.
