Ok, so I was planning on extracting DXM from a bottle of Robotussin Cough tommorow. I was planning on using the agent lemon extraction method. I was wondering if anyone has performed this extraction and is the ending liquid just as bad as the cough syrup to drink? Also would I be able to store the extract for a later use?

Your better off buying Robitussin Cough Liquid gels. They contain only DXM and no extraction is needed. You can get the walmart brand for $4 a bottle(20pills @15mg each).

Lind's advice is easiest, and probably best.

However, if you still feel like havin' chemistry day in your kitchen then the agent lemon procedure is pretty straight forward, and outlines a procedure for storage.

Just out of curiosity, were you going to use 'tussin syrup?

Yeah Robotussin Cough syrup contains just DXM and flavoring I just can't stand drinking the shit ever since I drank 2 bottles and puked my brains out

If I am correct, stored DXM will start to oxidise into DXO (dextrorphan)?

ive extracted dxm from cough syrup a few times but i used sodium hydroxide and naptha it worked great and made crystalline dxm. i took it as soon as i made it because i read that it does oxidise into dxo

C20H25N3O -chemical formula for fun. C12H16N2 -formula for exploration.

yeah there are a couple of way to extract DXM.. if you end up changing your mind and using the Ammonia and Naptha method, make sure you pay attention to the part that says "Non-Sudsy Ammonia ONLY".

Granted you could do what floridasucks said and use NaOH and Naptha.

this was from 8oz of robo cough syrup.....

Sounds worth trying I have a 4lb thing of NaOH and VM&P Naptha from my DMT extraction... is it the same principle. Also I think I might be screwed because I did end up using Clear Ammonia but it did contain suds .... haven't drank it yet...Oh yeah and did you smoke the crystalline DXM Florida (I don't think you can smoke DXM but I just was wondering cause you have the pills next to a light...)
