a)
"The painkillers Morphine and Demerol.
Chloropheniramine, an antihistamine.
The tranquilizers Placidyl and Vailum.
Finally, four drugs were found in "significant" quantities: Codeine, an opiate, Ethinamate, largely prescribed at the time as a "sleeping pill," Quaaludes, and a barbituate, or depressant, that has never been identified.It has also been rumored that Diazepam, Amytal, Nembutal, Carbrital, Sinutab, Elavil, Avental, and Valmid were found in his system at death."
this does not in any way compare to the drug combinations that are being discussed here.
b) noone says that contraindicated drugs "cannot kill you". but they won't do so necessarily. you make a sweeping generalization here.
also, why don't you respond to posts personally, instead of posting links over links to explain your point of view? I'd appreciate a real discussion, I don't like to argue with websites and youtube videos.
