Anna Nicole's Drugs: More, More, More from her 'Best Friend' Shrink

More news on the drug cocktail mix that Anna Nichol Smith was taking (all courtesy of her 'best friend' psychiatrist pal), which leaves me wondering how she lived as long as she did.

Now Anna Nicole's drug list looks like this:

  • Ativan
  • Chloral hydrate
  • Cipro
  • Dalmane
  • Dilaudid
  • Methadone
  • Morphine
  • Prexige (A British drug)
  • Paxil
  • Robaxin
  • Topamax
  • Valium
For being her 'best friend', it seems that Psychiatrist Khristine Eroshevich actually did much more harm than good.

With friends like these ....

FOX 411 has this report on the additional drugs that were in the mix. (scroll to the bottom in their column)
What else was Anna Nicole Smith taking last winter, and who gave it to her?

Some of that was answered by our pal, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, on TV Monday night. This column had already reported that Dr. Eroshevich had ordered methadone, Dilaudid, Ativan, Dalmane and a British drug called Prexige, all muscle relaxers and painkillers, for Smith.

But the doctor volunteered some more info on TV. She added to the mix Paxil, Robaxin, Topamax, morphine, Cipro, Valium and chloral hydrate.

How she got it to the Bahamas and why she thought Anna Nicole needed all this remains Dr. Eroshevich's call. But she did say in her "exclusive" interview with "Entertainment Tonight" that she administered it all herself.

And what of these added drugs? Chloral hydrate, for example, is used by veterinarians to calm their patients. One description says: "An overdose is marked by confusion, convulsions, nausea and vomiting, severe drowsiness, slow and irregular breathing, cardiac arrhythmia and weakness. It may also cause liver damage. It is moderately addictive." Topamax is anti-convulsant. Valium and Paxil we know about.

Smith's toxicology report is taking a long time, and maybe now we know why. It should be interesting to see how much if any of this stuff turns up in her blood. No wonder she seemed so stoned during her "Entertainment Tonight" interviews right before her death. It's amazing that she was awake long enough to sign the releases.
