Kids called it “triple C’s” where I was from
Wait. I thought triple C's was something else. I think it stands for cough, congestion, cold...? I remember taking a blister pack of 8 pills to get high back in the day. Was that off-brand benadryl?
Coricidin cough and cold, you're looking for the dextromethorphan. It's also a pretty terrible feeling overall.
That sounds right. I remember suppressing nausea and then having an extremely dissociative high for hours and being unable to sleep.
Usually what you're getting from those is pseudoephedrine (Sudafed), which is more a stimulant than a hallucinogen.
