Understanding Dextromethorphan: Insights from Seth Fitzgerald

Honestly, that's one of the main reasons why people are turned off, because it is the case that if you have to drink this moderately horrible tasting liquid that's just slightly sweetened and have bottles of it just to get effects, then that's a big turn off for using it.
Ever wondered about the highs and lows of a common cough medicine? In this episode of 'Challenging Pathos', host Glenn Marshall sits down with Seth Fitzgerald to unpack the world of Dextromethorphan (DXM). Often found in over-the-counter remedies like Robitussin® and NyQuil®, DXM can have dramatically different effects depending on the dosage. At low doses, it’s your go-to for a pesky cough. But take a bit more, and you could find yourself in a completely different headspace.
Fitzgerald, an expert on safe drug use and harm reduction, takes us through the fascinating stages of DXM's effects, from mild euphoria to intense dissociation. He also dives into the risks, particularly the dangers of mixing DXM with other depressants. This episode isn’t just a guide; it’s a cautionary tale that emphasizes the importance of understanding what you’re putting into your body.
Whether you're curious about recreational drug use or seeking to understand the potential pitfalls, this episode offers a balanced, eye-opening perspective.
