Initial toxicology results released in Matthew Perry's passing
Actor Matthew Perry was found dead at the age of 54 in his Los Angeles home. An autopsy was conducted, but the cause of death remains unclear. The first results of the post-mortem toxicological tests are now available.
The preliminary toxicological test results, conducted after Perry's death, offer insight into his state at the time. Known to have battled alcohol and drug addiction throughout his life, Perry frequently sought rehabilitation. While it appeared he had overcome this difficult period, the autopsy results tell a different story.
Despite Perry's history, the police found no illegal substances at his residence. Toxicology tests confirmed this, revealing the absence of substances such as fentanyl and methamphetamines in his system at the time of death.
The currently available results are not final, necessitating a wait for a more in-depth report that could take several months. It will be crucial in determining Perry's cause of death and whether there were any trace amounts of prescribed drugs in his system.
Matthew Perry was famous for his role as Chandler Bing in the television series "Friends". He was only 24 when he started on the show, already grappling with alcohol addiction. Among his supportive co-workers was Jennifer Aniston, one of the first to lend him a helping hand.
