Taking "Triple C's" as you call them, in any way other than the way recommended by the box is bad. People take them to get high on a drug called Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, otherwise known as DXM. DXM is a cough suppressant and related chemically to Ketamine and PCP. DXM by itself is relativly safe when taken in levels that people take in order to get high. ** Unless you're alergic or hyper-sensitive to it (Which is possible..) **
The bad thing about people taking Coricidin to get high, is that it has another drug in it called Chlorpheniramine Maleate. That drug is an antihistimine which is very bad in high levels. It can cause blood pressure issues, heart attackes, strokes, and death. On the Coricidin website it states "People with high blood pressure should be aware that the AHA recognizes that decongestants have been reported to increase blood pressure, and even interfere with blood pressure medicines."
If you want to take DXM to get high, *Which I do not recommend* Robitussin makes a formula called "Maximum Strength Cough" which the only active ingredient is DXM. At least that way you wont have to worry about the heart effects from the Chlorpheniramine Maleate.
Always do your homework on any drugs you put in your body. That way no one is to blame but you. It's very important you know what your taking, and what might happen to you if you dont follow the directions on the box.

You're reading Triple C's are pills that current teenagers use to get high. Have you ever tried them and if not, would you?

yah, and it explains an awful lot too... like why I've got high blood pressure for one thing; because years ago we used to think taking 'blues', or horse pills (ketamine) was a really good idea to get high, and the hit was great, kept you up all night, until you wanted to come down, then you had a couple of Bennies and BANG! for a few hours before you did it all again...
What an idiot... err, that's me, not you..

Selena, based on your spelling you obviously have been having quite a bit of fun and "sum"[thing] has already happened "2" you.
You have your fun "nd" someone like me will have to take care of you when you are in the hospital due to it, "mayn". Regardless of whose fault it is, you are not the only person being affected.

I appreciate your serious answer Spindizy, but had to lmao when I read " always do your homework on drugs you put in your body". I envisioned every teen out there bug-eyed and grinding their teeth over the books by the midnight oil....LOL!
