What are the effects of purple drink?!


Question: What are the effects of purple drink!?
Answers:
The active ingredients are codeine, a narcotic, and the antihistamine medication promethazine, which is used in this particular mixture to counteract postnarcotic nausea!. When taken in large quantities, both medications can lead to sedation and altered levels of consciousness!.[1]

Prescription cough syrups containing hydrocodone are also used to make drank, though they are less popular!. Songs like "Sippin' on Some Sizzurp" by Three 6 Mafia refer to Tussionex, a yellow cough syrup containing extended-release hydrocodone and chlorpheniramine (another antihistamine)!.[9] Other hydrocodone-containing syrups such as Histinex HC, Hycotuss, and Hycodan may also be used!. Syrup can be made with over-the-counter cough syrups such as Robitussin DM, which contain dextromethorphan as the cough suppressant!. Although dextromethorphan is used recreationally, it has dissociative effects as opposed to narcotic!.

Promethazine-codeine contains 10 mg of codeine and 6!.25 mg of promethazine per 5 mL!.[10] Users ingest roughly 120-250 mg of codeine with this dose!. When hydrocodone is substituted, the dose can be overwhelming at higher common doses, leading to vomiting and other mild opiate overdose symptoms!.[citation needed]
