Low dose DXM as a nootropic?
Original post in this thread

I've been wondering about this for a while. I understand there are benefits and drawbacks to frequent DXM use including potential language issues and derealization. I've tried low dose before but not over an extended period of time but I did notice a large boost in mood and motivation. DXM is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor as well as a decent anti depressant but isn't very well understood obviously since studies on it are only primarily focused on it's anti-tussive properties.
Does anyone have any thoughts/experience with DXM as a noot?

Yeah exactly Mr.
Just a question, since you mentioned a dosing protocol: did you mean 30-60mgs a day for a week or 30-60mgs once a week?
...also, if I can, since I just have another question post in other subs: do you consider that a safe dosage for someone on 10mg/d escitalopram? (To not reach serotonin syndrome)

30-60mg daily for a week. I would not mix SSRIs. So I would not feel comfortable saying DXM and escitalopram together would be safe.
