February 6, 200818 yr A deadly combination of drugs. No one should be taking all of these. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23029566/
February 6, 200818 yr That just makes my heart ache to see him die because of this. I don't care who he was just a complete waste to die that way.
February 6, 200818 yr Why would he be on oxycodone? Don't know but that stuff is horrible. I have never seen a drug that can be taken for such a short period of time and have such a EVIL affect on people.
February 6, 200818 yr Author He was on two pain meds (including oxycontin which is only supposed to be used for severe cancer pain). Two anti-anxiety drugs (Xanax and Ativan) and two sleeping pills. No legitimate doctor would ever prescribe that combination of meds. He must have been "doctor shopping" which is all too easy. Get different meds from different doctors and take whatever you want. At best a person could safely take HALF of those meds. Hard to believe a healthy young person needs ANY of them. I guess people forget how Elvis left us.
February 6, 200818 yr “acute intoxication by the combined effects of oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, alprazolam and doxylamine,” My question is were all these prescribed for him, and how many different doctors prescribed them?
February 6, 200818 yr My question is were all these prescribed for him, and how many different doctors prescribed them? He could have gotten them each from individual doctors however what I have learned/seen it takes as little as one for this to happen.

February 6, 200818 yr Don't know but that stuff is horrible. I have never seen a drug that can be taken for such a short period of time and have such a EVIL affect on people.Is that the same thing as Oxycontin?
February 6, 200818 yr You don't get that combination of drugs from one doctor. Want to make a bet??? I'll pm you!!
February 6, 200818 yr Is that the same thing as Oxycontin? Yes, it is the generic name for Oxycontin.
February 6, 200818 yr Want to make a bet??? I'll pm you!!ANY one doctor who prescribes that many drugs, in that combination, to one patient then he is criminally negligent and should face prosecution in addition to the loss of his license.
February 6, 200818 yr ANY one doctor who prescribes that many drugs, in that combination, to one patient then he is criminally negligent and should face prosecution in addition to the loss of his license. Really, thank goddness I was smarter than the average bear to figure that out! Actually good ole' TD has helped two doctors lose their license for stuff like this.
