Lol. Lmao.

DPH is scary shit.

I'm not speaking from experience or anything. Nor about the "dark" trip reports. I'm talking about the stories of addiction, permanent debilitating brain damage, and death.

It's pretty fucked that LSD, psilocybin, and THC are schedule I in the U.S. while this shit doesn't require a prescription.

(Not that I think DPH should require a prescription. More that psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin should be accessible recreationally.)

Here in Belgium, even ibuprofin needs a prescription. Certainly DPH.

Then again, here weed is still illegal (possession of 3g decriminalized) and the actually very beneficial stuff like LSD and psilocybin are also highly illegal.

You need a prescription for ibuprofen? That's way too far imo.

[–] CareHare@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You need a prescription for pills of 600mg ibuprofen. 400mg is available over the counter without prescription at any pharmacy. So you could just do 1,5 pills of 400mg and not have a prescription.

Same in the USA for doses that high

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 9 months ago

Nah, those ibuprofen trips are deadly

[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago

You need to take more than one for that

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago (4 children)

Does it really do all that?

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Take 600mg (each pill is 25mg) and yes it will.

You shouldn't be taking deleriants if you want to see some shit. Never done it myself but I've heard that the hallucinations are so vivid that you can be convinced they're real. Hard pass for me.

Take psychedelics instead. At least on those, you're aware that you're tripping.

[–] bfg9k@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Tbh nobody should take delerients for recreation lol, they will make you delerious and eventually schizophrenic.

Stick to the shrooms and acid if you want to see some shit

[–] DRx@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

Auditory hallucinations are most common. The sounds of flies buzzing around your head non-stop, creatures climbing up the walls/ceilings

Also, fun fact, there is a couple mnemonica for anticholinergic poisoning and they go:

red as a beet, dry as a bone, blind as a bat, mad as a hatter, hot as a hare, and full as a flask

But in pharmacy school we mostly said:

“No See, No Pee, No Spit, No Shit”

Yes but for most people it's a living nightmare that can end up in hospital

OP failed to mention the role Benadryl played in Bill Cosby's social life.

Works great for my car sickness tell you what

[–] DadVolante@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago

Oh that makes me feel old

Why does American Benadryl have this Diphenhydramine in, instead of Cetirizine?

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 10 points 9 months ago

Benadryl has been a brand in the US for decades longer than Cetirizine has even been in use, and they never changed the active ingredient when new antihistamines became available. Good thing too, cetirizine doesn't do shit for my allergies compared to DPH, and most other allergy med brands use cetirizine.

[–] lemming741@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

That's sold as Zyrtec here

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

We have both. I prefer the dram.

[–] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago

The one actual schizo post.

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

I started taking zzzquil regularly lately. Reading all these comments made me think... Shit. Oh well, not like I'll remember them
