Robitussin
Drugstore cold remedy
Robitussin is a brand name for over-the-counter cough medicines, particularly those containing dextromethorphan (DXM) or guaifenesin.
The name has become somewhat generic for cough syrup generally: Take some Robitussin and get some rest.
In slang, "robotripping" refers to recreational abuse of DXM-containing cough medicines for their dissociative effects at high doses.
