Codeine is usually used to treat coughs (in the cough syrup form) or when as a pain reliever pill it can treat mild-moderate pain as prescribed by a doctor. However, when used in lean, it is illegal because it is an illicit and "overdose" usage situation where people drink more than they were prescribed, which leads to codeine abuse and addiction. Sizzurp can *possibly* be legal if it is used in the prescribed amount, but this is not recommended as the drink can be potentially dangerous, addictive, and unhealthy.

This drink was created by DJ Screw in Houston during the late 1990s, and has inspired a subgenre of rap called “screw music”, which holds the “sound” of codeine intoxication.  Lil Wayne was also hospitalized for lean usage after he suffered seizures during intoxication/overdose.

Sizzurp is a narcotic drug due to its ingredient codeine as well as its illegal usage.  This is an intoxicating beverage made by adding cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine to Sprite, consumed as a recreational drug.  It usually has a purple color due to the cough syrup, but it can vary if the user mixes it with other drinks or uses different Jolly Ranchers in it. Sizzurp is described as having a very sweet flavor profile, with an overwhelming artificial sweetness.
