What Is Triple CCC?

Question by ?Mommy of 3?: What is Triple CCC?
About 1:30 am my mom called and said that my sister, cousins, and a friend had taken a lot of pills called Triple C and they were all at the hospital. One of the boys so bad that he was in ICU. I know it’s a form of Cough and Cold Coricidin, but what are the lasting effects of someone taking this. This boy took 30 pills.
he was in ICU for a little while, I guess until his heart rate went down. He’s out of the hospital now.

Although DXM can be safely taken in 15- to 30-milligram doses to suppress a cough, abusers tend to consume as much as 360 milligrams or more. Taking mass quantities of products containing DXM can cause hallucinations, loss of motor control, and “out-of-body” (disassociative) sensations.

Other possible side effects of DXM abuse include: confusion, impaired judgment, blurred vision, dizziness, paranoia, excessive sweating, slurred speech, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, headache, lethargy, numbness of fingers and toes, facial redness, dry and itchy skin, loss of consciousness, seizures, brain damage, and even death.

When consumed in large quantities, DXM can also cause hyperthermia, or high fever. This is a real concern for teens who take DXM while in a hot environment or while exerting themselves at a rave or dance club, where DXM is often sold and passed off as similar-looking drugs like PCP. And the situation becomes even more dangerous if these substances are used with alcohol or another drug.
