'''Dextrorphan''' (also known as '''DXO''') is the main active metabolite of [[dextromethorphan]] (i.e. ''DXM''). DXM is metabolized in the body by o-demethylation through the CYP2D6 enzyme to form DXO. Both are active chemicals and contribute to the [[DXM#Subjective effects|subjective effects]] experienced when active doses of DXM are consumed.{{citation needed}} | '''Dextrorphan''' (also known as '''DXO''') is the main active metabolite of [[dextromethorphan]] (i.e. '''DXM''').
