Tinnitus and DXM

Been on bluelight before and I love it - so glad a forum like this exists to help people make informed choices about drugs.

That aside, a very close friend of mine had a DXM trip recently - all very low key stuff, strictly tier 1/ threshold tier 2, but he's been complaining about hearing problems afterwards. It's been over a week since dosing, and he describes it as being like one of his ears sounds blocked, but there's nothing blocking it.

Does anyone have similar, helpful experiences or advice regarding this?


Further information: I've researched this extensively online, and have found several reports of tinnitus resulting from long term, heavy dex use, but never permanent tinnitus resulting from a single trip. He says the dose specifics are 100ml of ribotussin (dry cough syrup) for 80kg of body mass - a very low dose, according to dosage calculators - so it's hard to square the issue away.

Has ANYONE ever had such an experience the self from such a low dose, or ever heard of anything like this. As I see things, the dxm is probably not what has caused the problem, but I want to be absolutely sure before we rule it out.

A long term hearing problem like you described is somewhat surprising to me. However from personal experience I did note some of my senses feeling out of wack for about a week at most. Personally I would suggest getting it checked out by a professional, because it could be some sort rare side effect or an unrelated infection.

I read someone's experience years ago on Erowid, in the nootropics section, regarding tinnitus. I thgink the used gingko to remove it; might interest you.
