So many new drugs and drug concoctions have made their way onto the market and into homes in recent year and are deadly.
Purple drank goes by several names including sizzurp, purple stuff, lean, drank and barre. However, despite these playful monikers, purple drank is remarkably dangerous and has either killed or hospitalized several celebrities with equally entertaining epithets like DJ Screw, Pimp C, and Lil’ Wayne (treated in the ICU).
In recent years, purple drank has been celebrated among singers, rappers and professional athletes like Soulja Boy, Justin Bieber, and JaMarcus Russell. Apparently, all this attention was too much heat for drank’s unwitting supplier, Activis, which has halted production and sales of this highly potent cough syrup (nicknamed Prometh) for fears of substance misuse.
