– “5 reasons why Matthew Perry’s death is believed to be due to recreational ketamine use:”
– “1. Combining ketamine with buprenorphine, a medication Perry was taking for opioid addiction, can be dangerous and a “recipe for disaster.””
– “2. Perry’s ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety was documented a week and a half before his death, emphasizing the importance of professional administration for safe use.”
– “3. Self-administered intranasal methods of ketamine use are generally less safe and can drive drug-seeking behavior more aggressively.”
– “4. Toxicology findings revealed significant ketamine levels in Perry’s system, exceeding the typical range for monitored surgical settings.”
– “5. Buprenorphine can amplify ketamine’s sedating effects and lead to unresponsiveness, further complicating the situation.”
– “It is important to note that the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s report did not definitively state whether Perry misused or illegally obtained the drug, but his history of addiction raises concerns.”
