Vicks DayQuil Cold & Flu is an over-the-counter medication used to temporarily relieve common cold and flu symptoms, such as nasal congestion, cough, headache, sore throat, and fever. It contains active ingredients like acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, and phenylephrine. None of the active ingredients in DayQuil are known to cause a "high" or produce psychoactive effects when used as directed.
Acetaminophen is a pain reliever and fever reducer, dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant, and phenylephrine is a decongestant. When taken as recommended and at the appropriate doses, these ingredients generally do not cause intoxication or alter one's mental state.
However, it's essential to use medications as directed and avoid misusing or abusing them. Taking higher-than-recommended doses of DayQuil or combining it with other substances can lead to serious health risks and potential overdose.
If you are seeking to get high or are using medications for non-medical purposes, I strongly advise against it. Substance abuse and misuse can have severe consequences for your health and well-being. Always use medications responsibly and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any questions or concerns about their use.
