I saw the headline "U.S. tells firms to pull unapproved cough medicine" and thought to myself, "Oh, they're finally banning DXM." DXM is a mildly psychoactive ingredient used in relatively small doses in most cough syrups.
Oddly enough, the ingredient the FDA is banning, Guaifenesin, is something Robo-trippers avoid. To get enough DXM to trip, you need to drink an entire bottle of Robutussin (hence the name Robo-tripping) but Guaifenesin will make you vomit, so you have to get the syrup without it. Although the FDA is pulling Guaifenesin because it's a suspected carcinogen, they're making it easier for kids to trip on cough syrup.
Mo' TUSSIN!
Posted by: iZac at February 27, 2003 02:06 PMI find it funny that all the stories are all related in some way. Not just in the "robo tripping" experience but in the drug of choice
"cordicin". It will kill you faster then any other source. If you can do the math the amount that you are supposed to take is 15 mg and maximum strenth is 30 mg. You will reach the first platue at 150mg - 400 mg all depending on your body weight. I have tripped with this drug and i have experienced that trip on a number of occasions. Ive found that yes it can be dangerous but some of the benifits of the drug can bring friends closer then ever. It can also help you to resolve some mental issuses if you think about them when you are on the first platue.
The Second platue is one of the most fun. Still in control but being high as shit. i guess in the end dont blame drugs in this case DXM, blame yourself for your own stuidity. Research unbiased opinions and make informed decisions.
FYI ... IF YOU DRINK TOO MUCH WATER YOU CAN DIE AS WELL!
Posted by: robo dude ? at January 29, 2004 08:34 PMi love trippin on this shit~
Posted by: kandie at April 25, 2004 08:59 PMi take clordicin and man do i love it. its so easy getting and it fucks you way up. i take 8 at a time and that isnt to much but never take 10. i did that once and i was high out of my mind. if you take it just dont panic if you are too high and try to go to sleep.
Posted by: jim jim at May 10, 2004 03:44 PMMy first DXM experience was one like no other. I was bored as hell sitting at home. I had heard about people taking Corcidin Cold and Cough™, to simulate a "tripping" experience. I went to the drug store and got a package of those pills. When I got home I took the first eight pills and waited for them to kick in. After about an hour I could feel them beginning to kick in. At first it was ok and somewhat kind of cool. Then I started to peak. I started sweating like a stuck pig. My pupils were as big as the whites of my eyes. Righ then I knew I was in for a hell of a "trip". I got the computer for an interesting session of AOL. It seemed as everyone on there knew what I was on and they started messing with my mind buy making up strange screen names. One was DFATrooper, which looked like DEA Trooper. So, that kinda messed with me. Then I looked over and seen a shadowy figure of myself lying on the floor. That's when the bad trip kicked in. This figure spoke to me and said... Lay down on the floor with me or else I will take your life" So I did just that. My brother came in and asked who I was talking too. He took one look at me and knew what I was one because he had done it before. He called 911, needless to say i was freaking out at the hospital. They pumped a charcoal solution into my stomach cavity and I threw up violently for 45 minutes. I will never touch corcidin again. A word of advice... If you prefer to "trip" do it the good way and buy some acid and do it right. Don't even attempt to take Corcidin. That's stupid, very stupid.
Posted by: Noz at May 23, 2004 09:58 PMi have a question about robo-tripping...i have tried triple C took 8 pills and got high as hell..and i liked it but i know its dangerous. so i wanted to try robotussin instead. i was just wondering the conversion. of how much i drink to get me high?
Posted by: Lauren at May 31, 2004 07:08 PMI love it. you feel like your living in slow motion. Triple C is the first and best halucinagenic drug I've ever takin. I've heard that it can kill you and land you in the hospital, but thats only when you turn into a dumbass and take like 12 pills, between 6 and 8 is good for me and it lasts a good part of the day. it IS safe as long as you don't go takin another four pills every hour. you really want to know how much i love it? I'm trippin as im typin right now!
Posted by: 8 ball at June 12, 2004 07:06 AMI personally took some last nite. We were at a Prom, and my friend and I took 8....we were trippin out on the prom, we tryed dancing, which
is something I am good at, and I felt as though
I was dancing on a cloud, I was on Cloud 9...my
friends and I went to another friends house, and
we told told the friend to try what we were on, so
our friend took 8..and my other friend and I took
8 more, (remember we already had 8)the reason
we took more, was because our trip ended and we
wanted another one.So that makes 16 that I was on
last nite. It was cool, we were all on Corcidin and we were all chillin on the bed, and we put
in a movie.."Groove". and I was so sure that the
people in the movie was talking to me..and that I was in the movie. it was so cool, then a few hours passed of flying high and we finally all went to sleep...crashed out.
I had no idea triple c's were so dangerous i was never oe to mess with drugs but my boyfriend was takin them so i tried, he said to take 8, i loved it, i took like 8 every day for a couple months then i got to takin 16 cause my body was getin use to the amount i was takin, one night it seemed like the 16 were eve wearin off so i took 16 more, in like a 2 hour period i had taken 32, i thought i was fine tho, then i lost all feeling in my legs after the 2nd batch kicked in, i was standing outside and just went down, like suddenly i had no legs, i tried to get up and went back down, so i just sat down and tried to calm down cause it was scaring me, then my nose and eyes started bleeding so i had to tell what i had done and was rushed to ER. it sucked ass, tho when i got there i was not bleeding anymore, and they didnt even have to pump my stomach. they took my vitals and everything but i was completely normal, so i stayed there a long ass time and then they sent me to the crisis center, thinking i had taking 32 to try and kill my self. but once i talked to a counsler, they realised i was just kinda "addicted" on geting high with this and sent me to detox, let me tell u i have never missed my family, my room, my bed, real food!, more. i hated it every second there, i did not belive i belonged there, kids there were like 16 and younger addicted to heroin and crack and "more serious shit" to me then cough meds, i just wanted to leave but i had to me in there 3 days solid, then finally what felt like forever, i got to leave, but when i got home i wanted to go back, my family was SO pissed, i had lied, solen to get the meds cause whos ganna pay 5$ for a box of 16 when they r gone in a day? not me. now i have to see numberous drs, AA meetings, NA meetings, (even tho im not an achoholic??lol..yea.) it sucked fuckin ass. I was stupid, if ur smart u wouldnt even try 8, a kid took 4 and died , and another boy took 62 and now hes brain dead, it all depends on your body type dont do it cause your friend is and seems just fine, dont bother it sucks so much in the end!

me and my friend went to albertsons and both of us stole 1 pack of Coricidin Cold and Flu, we both took 8 pills and we were tripping out of our minds, hella good high, no bad effects, i did hallucinate a little bit, i saw white patches of hair growing randomly throughout the street, but the bottomline is, it does fuck up you liver, so if your going to do it, dont do it more than once every 2-3 weeks, or stick to a diff drug, it can get dangerous.
be safe, late.
Posted by: kyle at July 10, 2004 02:06 AMI got introduce to it when I was 20, and I have only done it twice. I like it, but every time, I take 16. I didn't know it can kill you! I honestly think that anything can killl you though, but it was a fun trip, I saw a scary looking figurine, and also I kept moaning because it felt good... I like the feeling, but it takes me two day to recooperate, and that is what I hate..
Posted by: someone special at July 26, 2004 02:22 PMi am trippin on 16 right now, i cant believe that im actually typing all this shit, but its cool, especially if you drink some, but never take 20 cause you wont be able to move, i had to get my little bro to put my shirt on, when i did it!!!!
Posted by: jp at August 8, 2004 07:28 PMI will be 18 on Sunday. Last Saturday I took Coricidin with one of my friend's. At first it was nice, but then I really got fucked up. I was laying on my coach and i couldn't even open my eyes everything around me was spinning so fast. My friend had to poor water down my throat because I began to burn up with possibly a fever. I couldn't move because I was shaking so much, my body hurt from jerking around madly. The hallucinations I experienced brought me to tears. Imagine if I took my than 8, I probably wouldn't be writting this right now. You can take up to or more than 20. After the first time, you have to take more and more because your body becomes immune to that dosage. My aunt works at Friend's Hospital, she had patients coming in on Coricidin and have exrtemely bad phycosis from this drug, some even commited suicide. From my experience, I strongly advise everyone to stay away from this drug. In adding, it is a pathetic way to get high. All drugs do is give you a high that doesn't last. What is the point of having a few hours or minutes of fun that can be fatal. Nothing will result from drugs except a wasted existence. If you want to wind up a vegetable, go ahead. What's worse is that you wind up a nothing, giving head for ten dollars just for your next high, having 8 STD's and children taken away from you because of your drug dependency. This is what drugs lead to. Doesn't that lifestyle really make a good impression on the one's that love you. One day you may have children, what are you going to tell them when they ask if you ever did drugs. It will tear you up if you lie or tell the truth. One day, I have to tell my kid's, if they ask, what drugs I did. Try to think before you act, I can't stop people from making poor choices, all I can do is advise you to make the more wiser of the two choices. Thankyou for taking some time to read this.

Well i think its a sweet thing too, me and 2 friends did it on our trip to chicago just us 3 went and we stayed in our hotel and tripped hard every night and it brought us closer then fuck and the other night i tried 16.. and it was not even fun it was a really intense buzz and it stays for like 6 hours easy It felt like 5 hours went by in about 10 minutes and you cant remmeber anything after but a few details. and what are with the stages me they come like i get cold then i get hot then i start to trip
Posted by: dude at August 18, 2004 07:12 PMwow my friend told me about it n i took the pills (maximum strength) my first time n i took 20 n i thought that was nothing but u guys r saying 8 is crazy so idk i did it a 2nd time but 20 didnt do barely nething plus we did i choke thing ware u pass out its awesum but i prob wont do it again from wut i heard
Posted by: guy at September 4, 2004 11:12 PMYo, everyone, I was a regular user of the Cordicin cold and cough medicine for about two years. I never once had a "bad trip", but I allways took the whole box at once. The trick is to know when to make yourself throw up so that you never reach a bad trip. You drink a gallon of water approx. 20 min. after taking the pills. BEFORE YOU SWEAT, if you start to sweat, throw up immediately and drink water. Then you will feel great for a few hours. (And even longer if you smoke some weed a little after you start trippin.)
Posted by: Wise Won at September 21, 2004 08:58 PMOk, so all of you say that your getting fucked up on 8 pillscontinually, the first time I took 8 pills, yes it was fun, and I was trippin, the 2nd time, not so much, I had to up the dosage to 10, then eventually after doing that a few time, I up'd it to 12, then so on to an incredile 18. The time I took 18 you would think i would be in the hospital, at 145lbs and 5'11 but nope. I dont remember what happened at all, I woke up on my lawn with a pillow, and this little plastic sword i had, crazy? yes, I dont know if it's worth it to do 18, becasue you will either DIE or NOT remember it, I was clean for a little but now I chug bottles of robo extra strength just to keep it safe!
dont take tripple c's before school i did and i passed out and then i woke up and was throwing up but it was weird cause i only took 12 and it made me trip for a while and that all i have to say be careful
Posted by: brizzel at November 4, 2004 11:36 AMjust a word of advice...don't take this crap!! i had somebody very close to me that i love take this crap saying he liked the high, he would see demons running around the room and tried hiding it to me when he was driving and went like 5 mph because he was soo messed up. i had to stay up with him one night cause he thought he was going to die and while all this was happening it took him 4 hours to tell 2 stories!!! he was taking...how many are in a pack??? 16 i think...of these triple c's, anyways, he couldn't move sometimes!! and another friend broke out in a horrible rash and felt like he was on fire and puked violently cause of the pills...he couldn't even walk to go to the bathroom cause of what these pills did to him...i love these 2 people and though i may not know all ya'll i do care for you. please don't do these pills, somebody out there does care for you and doesn't want to see you hurt yourself. i cry everytime i read an article or post of somebody hurting because of this drug because it hits right at my heart. i care for all of ya'll and i am praying that God will open up your eyes to the truth of what you are doing...God Bless!!

Posted by: ashley at December 1, 2004 11:11 AM
i took corcidin for the first time just a couple of days ago. i loved it, the energy, the glee, and omnicent glow that seemed to radiate of the the surface of anything. today was my third day taking them(coricin)and i had my first hulucination under it's influence after i had taken 7 1/2 pills. the walls in my freinds kitchen were melting around this miniature lamp in a corner,then his cat walked into the scene right as me and a friend were diggin' the visuals
and simutaneously cracked up at the traser of the felines tale. but now that i know about all of the harmful side-effects i won't be takin' it again! (I STRONGLY SUGGEST SWITCHING TO A SUBSTANCE WITH DMX AS A MAIN INGREDIANT SUCH AS MAX STRENGHT ROBBITUSSEN OR VICKS 44 COUGH AND COULD.
IN ALL THINGS DO NO HARM,

The first time I did Cordicin cold and cough was with my girlfriend we went to the grocery store and stole them and we used to trip out together. We would makeout like crazy and I remember looking at her and seeing double vision. I couldnt walk straight and I couldnt do anything correctly. It was like being extremely drunk. Another time my girlfriend took them before school and one of the teachers saw her tripping out so he called 911 and they took her away. Weird thing is the school is by my house and I heard the sirens. I freaked out like crazy because I wasnt sure if she was ok. But she was and I'm so glad. Another time I took some before I drank and I ended up losing my virginity to my best friends boyfriend. These pills are bad news. They mess up your judgement and mess up your body like sick. I sometimes get the craving for them but I never give in. I can't afford the damage it does. But in the end it's up to you.
Posted by: SKEPTIX chick at December 21, 2004 05:07 AMUmm....I think that this is BS, I have been smokin weed for about 8 years now and i have been taking "Triple C's" for about 4 months now..but before I begin may I say that you should know what your trying before you try it. I dont do any other drugs, never have, but my friend one night at work (not recommended) gave me 8 triple C's only the Cold&cough brand is worth trying, the others can be dangerous, these can also. But anyways, I took them at about 6:00 p.m., well to beat it all i have a rather easy job i mean i can smoke 4 blunts and still talk on the phone, lmao. So about 7:00 p.m. i start feeling warm,its a weird feeling, your hands are sweating and your feet are cold but all in all your whole body feels cold, its like having a fever. And basically after about 7:30 till about 10:30-11:00 it just made me more aware and everything of what was happening and when u walk or drive or anything you feel like your floating, it feels like your doing everything without effort.That was my first time, so the next time I took 8 again at work and i hadnt ate all day and that makes a difference, i felt the same symptoms but the effect was much greater this time and then smoking dank with it can really be bad,(good :) ) lmao DO NOT DRIVE!!! All I got 2 say is do what u do and do it safe, do be taking 20 or 30 at a time, ive taking 2 boxes (32 pills) in 1 night and smoked about 1/2 o.z. of weed i mean i felt real good, i wouldnt recommend this to be the first drug you try, you need to be aware of the affects of all drugs before you try them, so you dont panic or get scared. So if you do try this be with someone your close 2 and dont be smoking weed where u can get caught, this shit makes your paranoid as HELL!!! PEACE OUT.
Posted by: dude at February 16, 2005 12:29 AMthese kids are pussy's, they only take eight. I took ten the first time, eventually i was up to 16, but thats not the point. I use to sell this shit to kids at school while I was on probation. All these think there so hardcore because they took eight, whoo big deal.My friend took 16 her first time and later was up to 23. She now has a hole in her liver.
Posted by: Austin at March 10, 2005 09:49 AMHey people. I am currently waiting until I think it's time to start tripping again. I did them so much last year that my tolerance became 35 just to feel anything. I used to do them every weekend at my friend anna's. She would have a "C parties" and we'd all trip. But this is highschool..things change, people seperate. Anyways. I stopped for a few months..did them a couple time. My tolerance is still very high but not as bad as it was. I plan on tripping soon since it's been about 4 months again. Oh yeah. I first took 10 in school...i was fuuccct! It was probably one of my best trips. And don't ever take 40..I did and I guess I sat on my friends couch for 5 hours..they couldn't understand what I was saying cuz I was sluring so much. I remember slowly coming down and wondering what day it was and why it was dark outside. I thought it was the next day when really only a few hours passed. L8er people!
Posted by: Toni at March 21, 2005 07:03 PMI have done it twice and both times they were awsome i took 12 both times and i felt like i have never felt b4 Im pretty sure I was on the 2nd Platu. I felt drunk and High at the same time but i didnt hallucinate so I plan on taking a few more next time i cant wait

Posted by: Donny Darko at April 12, 2005 02:00 AMI'm still coming down from a high I had this morning. I know that some people say you can't get ADDICTED to Corcidin...but I seriously think I am. I feel like I NEED it to just get by. I steal a box from Publix almost every time I go which is several times a week. I want to STOP but I feel like I CAN'T. I felt like I was about to have a heart attack today and I felt really hot. I took 16 because any less than 12 don't have any affect on me anymore. I'm not saying it's wrong to take Corcidin just BE CAREFUL, you never know what it might lead you to do...you feel great but only because you're HIGH. You're in a world that's so much better than the reality you REALLY live in. Just PLEASE anyone who has tried it or is thinking about trying it be careful because you might start feeling like it's the only way to live and that's just not realistic and also if you take over 30 your could STOP BEATING so especially if you don't weigh much THINK before you take a bunch!!
Posted by: Emmica at April 12, 2005 11:48 PMCorcidin is very dangerous to get high off of. Best stick to products containing DXM as the **ONLY** active ingredient. DXM is a wonderful psycoactive drug but only when used by itself for the experiences. Start mixing it with antihistamines and pseudophedrin or even worse acetaminophen and you could die or put vital organs through pure hell.
Stick to DXM only products. Robitussin Max Strength is a good classic that only contains DXM and will give you that high you're looking for. If you ever get high from DXM in the future, do yourself a HUGE FAVOR and read some harm reduction sites on the net. They will tell you what is safe and not safe to use for tripping along with lots of other tips to keep you safely tripping and out of the ER and in another sad news report.
Check out this site for starters...

I've been for almost 6 months now. For the first 4 I was constantly on it every day, even doing what I call "double dosing." Thats when you take the same dose as you did the first time about 5-6 hours later. Its super trippy. Eventually my mom found out and she made me slow down and the pharmacies ran out of it. So now I'm trying to find some more, but if I don't it won't kill me. People are stupid who take 30 or more. Once I got to 18 I stopped for a while and now can take 10 at a time. I don't recognize any brain damage and don't ever get sick off it. And I'm not stupid enough to get suicidal. I know it's just a drug and it's only effecting my depression temporarily. I won't let myself get killed on the stuff.
By the way, a cool diet tip is doing coke and skittles for a couple of months, I lost 25 pounds! Don't get stupid with it cuz it's not for everyone.
It was so much fun though, I'll never stop until I'm on too many.
i dont know i am taking it for the first timem and i took i t, at 8:30, i took 8 pills, and now it is 10:45 and i have not triped out yey, so what the fuck....i feel a little brain dead thats all.
Posted by: mikeshow at August 16, 2005 12:45 AMI used to take those everyday...
Actually, today I took nine of them. I thought it would be a real treat since I had just taken seven yesterday but I was SO WRONG. The high was so intense that it wasn't even fun. I was in school though, and I got sent to the office because apparently I was acting all odd and like, holding up the whole class because everyone was paying more attention rather than the teacher.
I hit the peak while in the office, and I swear to god I thought I was going to die. Especially since I just wasn't firmiliar with it. I had heard you could die, but I don't know. I was all trying to get somebody to hold my hand, and only the nurse would. I was all hugging on her and telling her I loved her and that she was a really good nurse and good at comforting me. I had to relax though, because I was shaking so fucking badly that I could barelly move my hands and my heart rate was like, 155 or something. plus I only weigh 115 so Yeah. I ended up having to go to the emergency room. ALthough, I wouldn't even call it much of an emergency since I had to wait several hours before a doctor came. By then my heart rate was kind of going from 100 to 80 something. Just irregular. They didn't even give me any charcoal stuff.
I probably wont ever do that shit again though. I don't even know if I'll be able to go back to school.
Posted by: Rebecca at August 24, 2005 11:07 PMhey me and my friends are freaks and take corocidin everyday we each take a box then we go somewhere so we can get fucked up it is very good if u smoke blunts 2 WE need help
Posted by: gotgerd at August 26, 2005 08:38 PMi have taken robo 50+ times both robo and coricidin and let me tell you i know its a fun drug and a unique experience unlike any other but it can cause serious damage to the brain. i did extensive research on the drug and found out the part of your brain that is blocked off when tripping takes 15-20 days to fully recover after only one trip. so you may not feel like your tripping for that amount of days but your memory and cognitive function is impared. i know my cognitive functionin is really slow due to robo tripping all the time
Posted by: Roboking at August 31, 2005 09:40 PMi think that triple c's are the best shit in the world. when my mom wont stop hitting me, i just go and take eight of these thins andi feel so much less suicidal it's not even funny. these things saved MH fucking life
