Actually Dextromethorphan is the exact same as the DXM powder considering it's the same chemical. Often times the powder is made from the OTC drugs. If you drink orange juice it leaves your mouth tasting like OJ. It is comparable to pcp and Ketamine. Yes it does get you high. You obviously hadn't researched very well though. The easiest way to get rid of nauseia is smoking a bowl or 2. I love DXM but I don't get any of the bad side effects. You are talking out of your ass which is extemely annoying.
