Two die after overdosing on cold medicine

In this case, they took Coricidin, which contained dextromethorphan – don’t forget it’s a chemical relative to morphine.

it should be noted it is highly unlikely the dextromethorphan got him.

the other active in coriciden is chloropheniramine maleate. not fun stuff. at all. speaking from experience.

kids, let this be a lesson to you. READ THE LABELS and make sure you are getting the right chemicals.
