    Is there another name for this stuff? I have a large bottle of it i needed it to help supress a VERY VERY awful cough a long while ago. Would you get any effects from taking some of it obviously 'drinking it'. If so how much? Anyone ever heard of it/tried it.

    Pholcodine does not cross the blood-brain barrier and is therefore inactive.

    From what i can find it says it is similar to DXM? Don't know if this is correct but i thought someone may know.

    It is possibly structurally similar but not in its effect. It is an effective cough suppressant, nothing more.
