DXM powder... legal?

[deadmoap]

If SWIM were to extract DXM from couph syrup and turn it into a
hydrochloride... would SWIM get in trouble if SWIM sold it? SWIM plans
on manufactoring gel caps with 110 mg of DXM HCL each, and selling them
for $3 a peice. That's $12 profit for each $1.50 bottle of tussin.
Idiots wont know they're getting ripped. Although it takes a fair
amount of knowledge, time, effort, and desire to turn gucky ol' couph
syrup into a shiney hydrochloride, so maybe they're not really getting
ripped off.



But yeah... erowid says that it's "legal to buy, sell, and posess
without a license or prescription". Does that mean that if SWIM was
somehow busted, SWIM wouldn't get in trouble?
