Since I am sure you missed my edit, here is the important part for you on the wiki:
Dextromethorphan is the dextrorotatory enantiomer of levomethorphan, which is the methyl ether of levorphanol, both opioid analgesics. It is named according to IUPAC rules as (+)-3-methoxy-17-methyl-9α,13α,14α-morphinan
But like I said, nothing I could post in here would stop you from demeaning and talking ish about people, we both know that. Saying things like "opiates don't have cousins" is just stupid, you truly don't know what you are talking about old man.
Although the term opiate is often used as a synonym for opioid, the term opiate is properly limited to the natural alkaloids found in the resin of the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum). In some definitions, the semi-synthetic substances that are directly derived from the opium poppy are considered to be opiates as well, while in other classification systems these substances are simply referred to as semi-synthetic opioids.

I am starting to feel bad for you so I am going to toss you a lifeline.
Opioid analgesics are not opiates.
I bet the names confuse you.

You are a funny guy. I assumed you would come back with those types of replies. I wish you could see how you look from our point of view. Anyway have fun take care player.
I just wanted to add, that there is really no reason for you acting the way you are. I know it makes you feel good to call people kids and tell us we don't know anything, but it makes you look so sad. I feel sorry for you to be honest. I honestly do wish you the best of luck. I hope you find something in your life that makes you happy so you don't have to talk to people like this on forums in order to make some joy in your life.
I will say a prayer for you.edit on 6/4/2012 by sputniksteve because: (no reason given)
So instead of admitting you are wrong, you just take off?
Did you just want to trick people into thinking DXM was an opiate or did you actually believe it?
You know now you are wrong, right?

Dxm isnt an opiate your correct well it can be but thats not released for prescription use.
However it DXM is converted to dextrorphan in the liver. (DXO) is a psychoactive drug of the morphinan chemical class. In other words it has similar properties to morphine. In fact this used to be labeled as a class 1 drug but was downgraded because they needed something to replace codeine.

Your problem old man is that you just don't want to know the truth. You could easily google this question and come up with quite a few sites that will tell you exactly what I am telling you, but instead you would rather remain ignorant and call people names and belittle them instead. Like I said, your posts are text book examples of logical fallacies.
You can't feel sorry for me, I was already feeling sorry for you. I am saying prayers for you remember? You can't take my lines I invented them.

I already did this on page 390, as well as another person. Don't lie to me, there is nothing that I could say to you that would make you stop.
DXM is an Morphine analogue, it shares a similiar chemical structure to Morphine, although it does not bind to the MU receptors in the brain. These MU receptors are what causes opiates to be a good analgesic. So since DXM does not bind to these receptors it does not give us the same feeling that Morphine, Heroin, Oxycodone, etc. do.
What this means is it is basically a cousin of the traditional opiates. It IS an opiate. I am not going to google this for you and paste a link when you could easily do the same thing. I am not stupid and I am not going to play games with people that treat others like garbage and call them names just because they disagree with a statement on the forum.
More prayers coming your way though son, don't fret.
**edit** Here is the important part from wiki. Feel free to back out of your promise to leave ATS though, that was a pretty rash decision to make and I don't blame you for changing your mind.

Ok then ya'll got me. I was wrong.
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong.
DXM is not an opiate, obviously Autumn is a much better man than I am.

Whats that again? Clarify and then tell me again how I am wrong about DXM? I don't think we heard it yet. Silly gooses.
