Primarily the cocktails known as DDMP2 and DDMA. Below is attached an article discussing the history of these cocktails and the reason doctors came up with them. The state of Oregon used to provide the specific drugs and quantities on their website, but have removed this information. Now doctors who wish to prescribe them need to contact the state. Either they did this to remove the specifics from the public, or they are updated and want to provide doctors with the latest information.

The two cocktails are discussed on this site, and can also be googled to get the information. However, you should always be aware that quantities may have changed if you get old information. Note, when talking about DDMA - it refers to Amitriptyline and most discussions on this site refer to this method as Amitriptyline rather than DDMA.
