Brittany Murphy loved her some prescription drugs

I guess Brittany Murphy didn't learn a lesson from Heath Ledger's tragic death. Investigators found no less than ten (!) bottles of prescription drugs in her master bedroom. A live-in pharmacist by the name of 'Andy' was also found sleeping in one of the guest rooms . . . well not really but it seems plausible. From TMZ:
Paramedics . . . found a slew of prescription drugs -- "A check of the nightstands revealed large amounts of prescription medication in the decedent's name. Also noted were numerous empty prescription medication bottles in the decedent's husband's name, the decedent's mother's name and unidentified third party names."

According to the notes, the medications included Topamax (anti-seizure meds also to prevent migraines), Methylprednisolone (anti-inflammatory), Fluoxetine (depression med), Klonopin (anxiety med), Carbamazepine (treats Diabetic symptoms and is also a bipolar med), Ativan (anxiety med), Vicoprofen (pain reliever), Propranolol (hypertension, used to prevent heart attacks), Biaxin (antibiotic), Hydrocodone (pain med) and miscellaneous vitamins.
Seems pretty cut and dry. Mixing dangerous prescription drugs led to Brittany's death . . . IS WHAT THE RUSSIANS WOULD LIKE US TO BELIEVE!!! Dammit I miss the '80s when we could just blame everything on them.

    I'm sure her mother and family are in a world of pain and remorse and I wish them peace and resolve.

  • Jenni

    This poor girl... Makes you wonder where her mother was. She married an older (and frankly ugly) man, she was dwindling way and people around her knew she was falling into a hard battle with drugs. Don't be naïve and think that only Hollywood starlets are at risk – our children are at risk too! http://tictacdo.com/ttd/Pass-a... Look at the dangerous information available online to our children! Don't let it go too far!

    That is why we need government control. You cannot trust mothers and husbands to do the right thing. You can only trust the goverment.

    There you have it. If we had health care reform, the government would have rationed her medicine and made sure she only had what she needed. Instead, she had non regulated doctors writting for expensive drugs she did not need, or she had to get drugs from back alley pushers. The country needs health care that is managed by the government. Until that time no one is safe, and our economy will be in the pits. We can trust our government to do what is right.

  • funny

    You are being sarcastic I hope, they can't even manage a bankrupt postal system, a hurricane, or a bankrupt country but you want them to have complete control of our health care system.



    Did you miss the part where she had many prescription drugs in fake names and her mothers name. Yeah I don't think data mining every American citizen would solve that. Have you not learned by now that people with enough money and enough incentive will get what they want because every doctor has a price.



    Not only that but she was well know for using street drugs. How is the governments "war on drugs" working out?



    She would have just got high from the many illicit drugs found on Hollywood blvd if she couldn't get it in FDA mandated pill form.

    All the things that you said about the government were under GWB. Now we have O, and he has given us hope and change, along with a take charge government. HE will lead us, protect us, and tell us what to do.

  • funny

    God I hope so, what would I do if I didn't have the government controlling every aspect of my life. Time to call Burack and see if it is ok for me to take a shit now.



    Don't worry I will pay my share in carbon tax for it. I wouldn't want to go to jail where I can get all the free shits that I want.

    Don't laugh. Congress and the government know what is right and are best able to know what we should do. That is why we elect them and our Dear Leader to tell us what to do and not to do. Only HE can bring about healthcare reform, stop golbal warming, feed the hungry and heal the earth. We are lucky to have HIM.

    I'll reserve judgement until the final results but I definitely suspect that she was on Prozac and something like Xanax along with some kind of pain killer. Mix in a bit of alcohol and she'd be screwed, especially if she was on a low calorie diet.

    I only know this cause I can recognize the signs from my own past. I've seen interviews of her and she's definitely on something. At the very least Prozac to make her happy and Xanax or some other anti anxiety drug to bring down her jitters during interviews. If she swigged a bit of alcohol before a TV interview she'd appear overly happy and giddy from the Prozac but also slightly slurring her words from the anti-anxiety and alcohol mixture. Next day it would be like having a date rape drug… no memory of what happened and lots of sleep. At some point your mind just starts forgetting you took the medication and you keep taking more. Overdo it too much and you can fall asleep on your feet or right in the middle of vomiting and kill yourself.

    We should probably reserve judgement, until the offical autopsy results are made known next year. Anything else is pure speculation and there is no need to besmerch the name of the deceased.

  • Anonymous

    Blame the right wing haters like Limbaugh that for eight years denied universal health care. Brittnay had been having severe stomach pains for over a week before her death. She was denied health care and died. Health care reform would have saved her. Because she had no health care she had to get back alley medications to try and relieve her pain and illness. On top of it all she was hit with the deadly H1N1 flu which was probably caused by the last administration.

  • Blah

    Universal health care is a scam, get over it. Every American citizen pays into it and only 10% draw from it, wow that really sounds like everyone will get health care. Not only that but she could afford a health care plan, she lives in a mansion for christ sakes. If she can't afford it no one can. They also don't turn away sick people in the ER. Just ask all the mexican border jumpers with the fifth anchor baby they are having.



    She was a drug addict quit trying to look for any excuse to pass your socialist bullshit health care plan you bleeding heart self hating liberal.

    You're an idiot. Canada and the UK enjoy the life-long benefits of universal healthcare.



    Get a clue, neocon. British idiot savant Stephen Hawking wouldn't have lived HALF his life if it *weren't* for UC, and HE admits it!



    Dummy.

    “The real owners are the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians, they’re an irrelevancy. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the statehouses, the city halls. They’ve got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies, so that they control just about all of the news and information you hear. They’ve got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying – lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else,”



    “But I’ll tell you what they don’t want,” “They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That’s against their interests. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. You know what they want? Obedient workers – people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And, now, they’re coming for your Social Security. They want your fucking retirement money. They want it back, so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all, sooner or later, because they own this fucking place. It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the big club.”By the way, it’s the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe, what to think and what to buy.”



    “The table has tilted, folks. The game is rigged, and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good honest hard-working people, white collar, blue collar, it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on, Good honest hard working people of modest means continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don’t give a fuck about you. THEY DON’T GIVE A FUCK A BOUT YOU. They don’t care about you at all, At all, At all, and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care.”



    “That’s what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that’s being jammed up their assholes every day, because the owners of this country know the truth: It’s called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.”

    First of all you partisan puppet I am not a republican or democrat, only fools would pick a party that is so much the same they collude on a daily basis to rob you blind. The EU and the Canadian health care system suck, I guess if you like waiting in line for 6 months to a year to get a procedure done is your answer to a better health care system then you can have it.



    Did you miss the part where I said that only 10% will receive socialized health care while 100% pay for it. Yeah doesn't sound much like the what how it works in Canada or the EU. Or the part where I said that it is illegal to turn away a sick person at an ER, why do you think the illigal border jumpers come here in the millions to seek our "failed" health care system, not to mention it will still not solve the problem of illegal citizens that come in every year, take our health care and pay nothing into it.



    If you obamabots would pull your head out of your ass you would notice he is doing nothing to help the little people, just like GWB didn't care about you, the both of them fuckin suck, and now we are left with a third term of GWB like politics, more war, 30 thousand more troops put in harms way, a shitty global carbon tax and a healh care plan that will bankrupt every middle class citizen so you left wing pussies can feel better about your selves when you made the decision to vote for this banker and corporate owned stooge.



    This obama stooge makes money on every swine flu shot because he invested in all the vaccine companies back when the bird flu was being promoted my the GWB administration, when you fools take tamiflu you are helping out Dick Cheney because he is one of the largest investors in the company that makes it, see how both of your so called sides of the same coin are making money off of your ignorant partisan sides you pick. Go back to sleep you liberal idiot why they rape and rob your pathetic ass blind.

    Sounds familiar, my grandma was like that, she had a live in pharmacist when she died...at the fucking nursing home...

    that is quite a list,but other than the vicoprofen and vicoden...perhaps she needed some of those meds for an underlying medical condition. Perhaps she WAS bi polar...I don't know. Seems like there is a huge portion of this picture we aren't seeing. I'm sure she was abusing some of those meds...it's common and easy to fall into.
