Dextromethorphan (abgek. oft: DXM, auch DMP) ist ein Arzneistoff, der auf das Nervensystem wirkt. Der Wirkstoff wurde als zentral (im Gehirn) wirksames Antitussivum (Hustenblocker) entwickelt. Heute weiß man, dass die Substanz ein potentes Psychotropikum ist, das auf zahlreiche Hirnfunktionen Einfluss nimmt. Seit 2013 ist Dextromethorphan daher in den USA in fixer Kombination mit Chinidin zur Behandlung neurologischer Erkrankungen in Folge von Schädigungen des Gehirns zugelassen.
