Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Obituaries, Rumors
Approximately two weeks after Heath Ledger’s passing, we now officially know the cause of death. The 28-year-old actor died from an accidental overdose.
The initial autopsy finished shortly after the Jan. 22nd event proved inconclusive. The New York City Medical Examiner needed to perform toxicology and tissue tests for a definitive answer.
“Mr. Heath Ledger died as the result of acute intoxication by the combined effects of oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, alprazolam, and doxylamine. We have concluded that the manner of death is accident, resulting from the abuse of prescription medications.”
Although police believed the death may have been drug-related, no illegal substances were ever found in the home. Ledger only possessed bottles of prescription pills. Several of the the drugs factored in his death are used as painkillers; others were taken for sleeping and anti-anxiety.
