triple c's

[laurajustlaura]

I'm no drug expert, but this pissed me off a little. me & my friend were having a conversation that started with me asking what kind of pills would she be having at her party. It went a bit like this:
me-what kind of pills are you having at your party?
her-coricidins
me-coricidins! you can't get those anywhere i thought you meant real pills damn
her-coricidins are whats going to be there
me-aw you know they have all these extra ingredients?? why don't you just take robitussin
her-no robitussin can kill you!! my friend took robitussin & she started throwing up
me-you can't die from it unless you take like 10 bottles (ok not true but anyway)
her-yes it can
me-no coricidin's the one with all the extra ingredients!!!
her-coricidins are the ones that make you hallucinate, robitussin doesn't
me-NO THATS THE DXM IN IT!! robitussin has dxm coricidins just have extra stuff in it, but robitussin has JUST dxm
her-coricidins have e or lsd in them that make you hallucinate
me-where the fuck are you hearing this stuff??its the dxm that makes you hallucinate, thats no lsd in coricidins!!
her-whatever
me-i'm just trying to help. i know more about robitussin & dxm than you do.
her-whatever i don't care

she's going to die.

MAn I hate people like that even when u show them the proof they wont belive you

DXM so isn't a party drug anyway. I really hate it how kids will just put random shit into their bodies. And a Coricidin party? How old are these kids? 9? 10?

[laurajustlaura]

14-18 i think. sad isnt it.
what i hate is how everyone constantly talks about how high they are at the time (at school; i constantly hear it at school). It gets old.

no offense but your friend is a fuckin idiot. if it's going to be a lot of people i can almost gaurentee someone's going to push their limits and wind up in the hospital...and her friend threw up for a reason....more than likely because of the G word i ngredient that's in some of them. which isn't a bad thing....just becasue you throw up don't mean it's going to kill you...if i was going to do this type of shit anymore i'd rather overdose on robitussin and puke (cuz that's what your really doing) then take tripple c's, not puke and have my body shut down....you know i don't like being a little bitch or a snitch..but if you really care about your friend you'll go and call some type of authority (police, even mom just something to intervene)

[slipknotpsycho]

oh yea, tell your friend whether she wants to believe it or not you're not getting any high from tripple c's YOU ARE FUCKING DYING! THAT EXTRA INGREDIENT NEEDS A CERTAIN ENZYHME IN YOUR LIVER TO BREAK IT DOWN, THAT IS A LIMITED SOURCE AS IT IS WHEN YOU "START TO GET HIGH" IT'S YOUR BODY RUNNING OUT OF THAT ENZHYME AND YOU ARE SLOWLY BUT SURELY DYING..PLAIN AND SIMPLE. take it from me...i know just about everything there is to know about those pills...i was up to taking 2 f ull boxes every day and chasing it with a 12-pack of smirnoff ice...eventually i woke the fuck up and started doing research on how it gets you high, becuase i wanted to know and i found out everything then and stopped....

slipknotpsycho: A liver enzyme that gets depleted? Where is information on this? Having read about everything I can find on DXM I can't say I've come across anything like that.

DXM does not cause damage to your body to get you high. I can't think of any legitimate psychoactive that does. Claiming that it does only serves to further Government propaganda. Psychoactives work by altering your brain chemistry, not by killing cells.

Coricidin was killing you because you were taking an overdose of the antihistamine contained within the product. Antihistamines, UNLIKE LEGITAMITE PSYCHOACTIVES, may in fact cause damage to your body to produce their effects. Had you been consuming something without the extra active ingredients you would have been much better off.

2 boxes of CCC's and half a case of Smirnoff Ice PER DAY? Come on man. You're putting all of that poison into your body daily and you want to blame the DXM?

Let's keep the information accurate guys.

If people are gonna be so fuckin' stupid let them burn along with their ignorance.

im almost 100% sure the reason coricidin fucks you up more than products with just dxm is because the cpm in it is a anti-histamine(s/p?) and when you overdose on most anti-histamines it leads to delusional sometimes pyscotic behavior
the same enzyme that breaks down the dxm breaks up the cpm in coricidin thats the main reason its so dangerous, and you could die if you take enough cause your liver doesnt have enough of the enzyme to break all the chemicals up and your liver shuts down. so i wouldnt say the fucked up feeling you get is actually you 'dying' , its just the interaction of the cpm with the dissaccociative effects of dxm.

but i still agree its a dangerous drug, but its not the death-wish drug its hyped up to be, ive seen tons of people on it and i used to use it and the worse ive seen is a brief psycotic episode or bad trip none resulting in a hospital visit.
