Dextromethorphan (DM or DXM) is an antitussive drug that is found in many over-the-counter cold and cough preparations.

Recreational use of DXM is frequently referred to in verb form as "dexing", "tussing", "roboing", "robotripping", or "robofrying" .

DXM, when consumed in low recreational doses (usually under 200 mg), is often described as having a buoyant, vaguely psychedelic effect similar to a mixture of alcohol, opiates, and marijuana. This is often accompanied by a heightened appreciation for music (perfect for those who have tickets for PIRATE QUEEN), increased desire for socializing, and the feeling of floating. With higher doses, intense euphoria, vivid imagination, and CEV's may occur as bizarre feelings of dissociation increase. With very high doses, profound alterations in consciousness have been noted, and users often report out of body experiences or temporary psychosis. Most users find such high doses to be extremely uncomfortable and are unwilling to repeat it.

Oh that's when you chug a whole bottle of cough medicine in one shot, right? When I was in HS, someone was telling me about it and I thought they were just joking. Come to find out, a bunch of people actually did it. And most of them did it as a "pre game" to when they were going to go drinking or smoking. Just plain sad!

Imagine being so pathetic that you find it cool to drink cough syrup! I don't even want to drink that slop when I have a cold.
