So, on a dare, I drank a whole bottle of Robitussin

Dextramethmorphone's kinda fun, if you fancy "losing" a good few hours, if not most of the day.

Plus, the sugar in the medicine means that you pebble-dash the lavvy.
 
My grandmother overdosed on Nyquil and had to be taken to the hospital and had her stomach pumped.... and this was accidental... why would you do such a stupid thing.

Because I felt like trying to kill myself fscknut! Why would you ask such a stupid question? If I knew anything about it, I wouldn't have done it.

Shens, or I'm fscked.

It depends on what kind you took. If it has acetamenophen (sp?) in it, then, yes, your liver is going to take a beating. If it doesn't then you just have to worry about the side effects of the DXM (dextromethorphan), which is also pretty bad for you.

If you want a DXM trip just take Dex-Alone.

However it's stupid and pointless.

I didn't know there were terms for this, much less acronyms. I'm a drug newbie

nope, it just has dextromethorphan. How long does this last?
 
Yeah, boy! Let that 'tussin get in there. Let that 'tussin go down to the bone! If you run out of it, put some water in the jar, shake it up, more 'tussin! MORE 'TUSSIN!

You will be fine... if you can still find the bottle post which brand of Rob it was. There should be some letters after it.

If you took in that much apap it can damage your liver but it's not something that is permanent after one time nor should you worry about it. I'd be more worried that you are randomly doing drugs that you have no idea the effects of.

How long ago did you take it? Have you eaten anything today?

If you're here and asking that, you didn't take enough to screw you up. By all rights, you should be in a zombie-like state on the nearest couch/bed/floor.

Yea a weeklong binge of alcohol will do some damage but it will heal. Only if you keep doing it does it become a problem.

Sorry I must have scared you with that previous post.
 
As long as it dosnt have acedaminophen (sp?) you'll be ok. Back in my college days i'd drink a couple bottles of vicks 44 for a DXM high
 
Well, now you know what it's like. I personally have tried it and it's nothing like acid. I won't do dxm again just because it made me feel like crap. Some people get addicted to it though. It's not really as bad for you as everyone is saying. It's definently not something you want to get addicted to, but it's prolly not going to kill you unless you massively OD... like 2 or 3 bottles.

"Robintussin Maximum Strength Cough"

That was the right kind:

# Dextromethorphan 10mg (Cough Suppressant)
# Guaifenesin 100mg (Expectorant)

However, answer my other message if you want to know how long you'll feel it.

NO no no. yuck! The Guafensin will make you feel like CRAP! It won't hurt you, it just makes you feel REALLY crappy if you take more than a gram of it. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS use the kind that ONLY has the DXM in it.
