so i have been sick as f*ck lately and have been puking for like a week straight. my lame doctor has been on vacation the whole week of vomiting and left a message on the answering machine to go to the hospital in an emergency. well the other day i threw up and must have torn a muscle but i had extremely peircing pains in my left breast. i couldn't even take a deep breath so i panic thinking im having a heart attack. i know my family has had real heart attacks and they were vomiting too so i got scared.

my mom drove me to the hospital and i calmly went in and explained all that was going on and that i have been sick for like 2 weeks with no doc to go to and after x-rays and test ran said it wasn't heart related and gave me a prescription to promethazine 25 mg for vomithing.

they gave me one at the hospital along with heart burn pills and told me the promethazine would make me sleepy. it took a long time to kick in but when it did OMG!

i was extremely sedated it was something like xanax or something. i just sat in my chair not wanting to get up and just surfed the internet for hours. i googled my meds and it came up with a story about promethazine on erowid vaults! some guy crushed up like 4 pills and was so waisted he was seeing visuals and had slur speech.

i im not about to take more then 1 pill but it does say on the bottle i can take every 6 hours as needed for puking. but the one pill kick my ass so bad im not going to take anymore. its almost like a couchlock buzz but without the giggles.

i have took vicodin and other pain killers that didnt even do anything too me (of course i only take 1 not several) but this 1 nausia pill kicked my butt. has anyone heard of this med or been prescribed it?

the side effects were i almost walked into a truck moving towards me because i was like a zombie. also the next day i was still fucked up from it. i havent took one since. im going to save them for a good day when i want a buzz again.

i never been on opium but i would say its very sedating effect like it (from what i read) any replys would be cool thanks for reading

I got my wisdom teeth pulled last week and the next day I was puking everywhere. I called the oral surgeon to get a different antibiotic, because I didn't think the pain meds were making me throw up, since i had taken those exact meds before. She didn't want to give me a different antibiotic, instead she said she was going to give me Promethazine 25mg which would settle my stomach down and allow me to keep taking my current meds.

I chewed the Promethazine up so it would release faster (cuz I wanted to stop throwing up every hour). It didn't kick my ass like you were describing, but I was certainly feeling good. At first I didn't really know what was going on, I was feeling good, relaxed, a little sleepy, then I realized it was the Promethazine, so I figured it was working and I ate some food, and 4 Percocet and then I was really feeling nice. Didn't throw up any more either.

haha cool story, it prob kicked my ass because im a skinny person and i dont abuse meds so i have a very low tolerance. i havent even smoked MJ for about 1/2 a year so it was quit a lil trip for me :P thanks for the reply

Well I'm not a big guy either, but I do munch pills on occasion, Benzos now and then, PK's, and I have a script for Ambien which is some wild shit. Never tried Promethazine though before I got the script. I don't even think I could find it around here if I wanted to.

Promethazine, Codeine, DXM is a popular combo, the syrup, haha, and if you think a 25mg Promethazine pill kicked your ass that would probably put you on a new level for sure.

DXM and Opiates together is NG.

DXM should never be taken while on medications such as MAOIs and SSRIs, this may interact with DXM to cause serotonin syndrome. This condition, although rarely fatal, is not terribly pleasant. Some of the symptoms of serotonin syndrome include muscle rigidity, confusion, diarrhea, incoordination, low-grade fever, sweating, muscle tremor, mania, agitation, exaggerated reflexes, and nausea. Some drugs to avoid taking while on DXM are:

• phentermine, fenfluramine, phen-fen (diet drugs)

• fluoxetine (Prozac®, an SSRI), tricyclics and lithium (antidepressants)

• terfenadine (SeldaneTM - prescription antihistamine), & possibly other non-drowsy antihistamines, such as ClaritinTM and HisminalTM (these can cause heart irregularities)

• antidepressants Desyrel (trazodone) & Serzone (nefazodone) (Possible liver damage)

• some SSRIs such as bupropion (WellbutrinTM) can give a prolonged (3+ day) hangover.

• also, cigarette smoke might be considered an MAOI, which may increase unwanted side-effects (not in my opinion)

• MDMA (extacy), while it isn't a MAOI, it should be avoided with DXM (possible heart problems)

• opiates and cocaine can cause a fatal overdose when mixed with DXM.
