I'm dubious about this one! I tried using some -- 10 mL or two spoonfuls, the recommended therapeutic dose -- and, while I got dreadfully f---ed up (slow metabolism seems to have been the cause), I was still coughing!
For a cough, I recommend Tessalon Perles (prescription-only, unfortunately).
BTW, DXM is (I think) a monoamine uptake inhibitor. It appears that DXM can cause the "serotonin syndrome" in combination with some drugs such as SSRIs and MAOIs. Probably MDMA too.
