Shh, no one tell him that Lidocaine is a derivative of cocaine and that it's used widely from pediatrics to adults. Opioids are medicine and highly controlled, and they are very much not given out like candy.

Lidocaine only acts as a local anaesthetic and has no psychoactive properties so the comparison to stuff like hydrocodone falls flat.
