About one third of people who try DXM like it. One third doesn't actively dislike, but don't particularly like it, and the last third don't like it. You don't HAVE to wait a week or two, but from a harm reduction standpoint that is what is best. In the DXM FAQ, it give the mg/kg for the different plateaus. If you have never taken DXM before (taking as directed is counted as having taken it) start with about twice the recommended dose. If you feel dizzy from that, DXM is not for you. A small percentage of people have a deficiency in the liver enzyme that metabolizes DXM, meaning that a recreational dose would severely damage or kill them.
