PLEASE READ!! Stronger than normal DXM!
Be careful with your dosing with this product - this is DXM FREEBASE, and it is MUCH stronger than store bought DXM HBr or DXM Polistirex. My personal calculations show it to be ~1.37x stronger than DXM HBr milligram to milligram, but don't trust random people on the internet to be good at math! In simple terms, it is a LOT stronger than other DXM products!
Because also keep in mind these these tablets are already double the dose of most DXM HBr gelcaps too - most gelcaps are 15mg HBr, this product is 30mg freebase
So not only is it double the milligrams, but each milligram is much more potent
I calculated 1 tablet of this product to be roughly equal to 41mg DXM HBr.
Really oversimplifying it, you might imagine each tablet to be like a 40mg gelcap of DXM Hbr, instead of the usual 15mg gelcaps you would buy.
But again, please don't take my word for it, you don't know me, I'm just some guy on the internet! When it comes to your health, ALWAYS verify for yourself. Trust no one else. Especially not some random on the internet.
-DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND CALCULATIONS-
-ADJUST YOUR DOSE ACCORDINGLY-
And DO NOT treat this like regular grocery store Dextromethorphan!
Because this is freebase. Freebase and Hbr do NOT have the same potency, remember freebase is 1.37x stronger than you're used to (according to my calculations, which you should not trust, and should verify for yourself)
-- Additional information --
Based on my personal reading, DXM freebase is not very soluble in water so it can be hard to absorb.
But it is soluble in alcohol, so for absolute maximum efficiency one might consider dissolving in a SMALL amount of ethanol - as in, a few mL
I have not tested this. It is purely speculative based on what I read online.
But PLEASE, BE WARNED -- Consuming alcohol and DXM in large amounts may Iead to death or serious brain damage! Exercise extreme caution with this combination!! Better yet, don't drink any alcoholic beverages with dxm!! Ever!
-- For any IVDUs reading --
If you're thinking "oh, it's soluble in ethanol? Could I dissolve a tablet for injection?"
DO NOT DO THIS!! THIS PRODUCT IS NOT SAFE FOR INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION!!
It does not matter if you have a micron filter, it's still unsafe. Sterility is not the primary issue. Nor are embolisms.
Taking any medication orally requires it to be absorbed through the intestine, where it immediately travels to the liver to be metabolized before it can reach the brain and the rest of the body - this is called the first pass effect. It's why injecting drugs is usually stronger than taking them orally. The liver dramatically reduces the potency of most* substances on that first pass through it, because it metabolizes them and breaks them down. Every dosage guide you see listed online, such as 15mg, 30mg, or for 1st plat, 2nd plat, etc. are all assuming oral consumption. Swallowing 30mg dxm hbr is one thing, but injecting it is TOTALLY different. No one knows what injecting 30mg dxm will do, but very likely, it will kill you. It is uncharted territory, very little research on this topic exists and you do not want to be a a cadaver at your local medical school because you were overly brazen and tried injecting something you didn't enough about. Please don't inject it. Just don't. Because I'm not joking, if you try, you may very well, literally, actually, die. Like game over. And there are no respawns in this game, brothers. It's not worth it. Just don't do it.
-----------------
Anyway, for everyone else, please make sure you remember each tablet is 30mg (already being double the usual 15mg) and on top of that, since it's freebase, it is much stronger than the DXM you're used to. Roughly 1.4x stronger according to my calculations. But what do I know? You don't even know me. Do your own research. This is YOUR LIFE. The one and only one you have. Everything I have stated is for education and harm reduction purposes only, I am not responsible for any injury or harm that may come from this product. Follow the dosing instructions on the package!
Stay safe everyone:) DXM has helped me a lot, physically, psychologically, and even quitting opioids cold turkey - because DXM is an NMDA receptor antagonist similar to ketamine, which indirectly modulates the mu opioid receptor and mitigates withdrawal symptoms.
Anyway, stay safe, I love you all and please smile if you're reading this :) it will make you feel happier just in itself. Hope this helps! Ciao!
