When I told him that I was taking DXM in cough syrup using the single low dose at bedtime protocol recommended by the low-dose naltrexone people, his main concern seemed to be that the preparation contain only DXM as the active ingredient, and to particularly avoid any which contain polystyril which is added to slow down the release of the DXM into the circulation. He seemed to be subscribing to the idea put forth by Zagon that the drug should only briefly bind cell surface receptors proir to the natural early morning time of optimal release of endogenous opioids by the cells.

Well, to me you are all
experts given that I'm still just trying to make sense of it all
I'm just trying to do the opposite of robotrippin'...what could we call it for PWP? robodribblin'
I found the main thread on DXM started in 2007. Rick, you tried it back then; any reason that you feel comfortable sharing why you stopped? Also, AshleyK asked if using an agonist like Mirapex actually countered the effect of the DXM, but I didn't see anyone answer this- does anyone know?
Also, is it a no-no to drink and then take the DXM? I have a glass of red wine at night sometimes.
It would be great to hear from other brave white rats who tried this starting two years ago. Have you remained on it, and how goes it now?
