Street price for codeine syrup: what you can realistically find
There isn’t a single “street price” for codeine syrup. Prices vary a lot by country and city, the specific product strength and volume (for example, whether it’s a branded prescription cough syrup or a different concentration), how much is being sold (bottle vs. measured dose), and current enforcement or supply pressure. In many places, codeine cough syrups are tightly controlled, so pricing often fluctuates and can be hard to verify.
How price usually changes (size, concentration, and “per bottle” vs “per dose”)
When people ask for “codeine syrup street price,” the actual number often depends on:
- Package size (commonly sold as full bottles vs. split into smaller portions)
- Codeine concentration (mg/mL) and the formulation (some syrups contain additional ingredients)
- Demand relative to local controls
- Whether it’s resold as prescription product vs. diverted supply
If you’re looking for a real number, what location matters most
If you tell me your country (and city/region if you know it), plus roughly what product you mean (brand name and bottle size, or the codeine strength in mg per mL), I can help you find the best available public information for that area.
Important safety note
Codeine syrup can be dangerous even at doses sold illegally. Street products may be adulterated or mis-dosed, and mixing codeine with alcohol, benzodiazepines, or other sedatives can be fatal.
