DEA Seeks New Limitations On Drug Used By Michael Jackson

Filed under: Michael Jackson

wenn962934__opt11__opt12.jpg

Due to the recent death of Michael Jackson and its possible connection to the drug Propofol, the Drug Enforcement Administration is looking to put new limitations on its distribution.

The DEA is looking to have it classified as a controlled substance, a drug designated for prone abuse and addiction. Until Jackson's death, it was assumed the drug was mainly used by hospital professionals, as the drug is mainly administered intravenously in hospitals to sedate patients. But such is no longer the case.

Though a lengthy process, the DEA feels it is necessary to add the drug to the controlled substance list, as the number of propofol related deaths has increased in the past few years.

At least some good has come out of Jackson's passing. Now, hopefully, others will be safe from the same fate.

    …that happened with me regarding syrup of ipecac when I died. At least they tried. "I Won't Last A Day Without You".

    I had to get this drug three times last week for medical procedures and I hated it. I only got it 20 minutes at a time and I still feel like ass. I don't see how anyone can use it to get high, you are in a coma about 10 seconds after they put it in your IV and there is no "high"..no nothing. You are just gone. In addition, it gave me horrific sleep terror when I actually did sleep on those nights it was administered to me. You don't really sleep on it..your brain isn't doing what it really needs to do when you sleep naturally so I just don't buy this idea of using it for "partying" or sleep at all. A note to the curious..stay far away from this.

    has it even been confirmed that this is why MJ died?

    check your facts- they were looking at restricting propofol before jackson, and its only caught media interest now because of his death. they wouldnt do an investigation of a substance because one person died from misusing it.. even if he was the king of pop.

    With all of his money, couldn't he have bought better wigs and not some cheap shit from the Dollar Tree?

    Re: putthekoolaiddown27 – I can rub yer back………!!!! ♥

    It still IS mainly used by hospital professionals (who, like with any drug, screw up sometimes and administer it inappropriately, which is where most of the deaths come from) — most people don't have the necessary connections or $$$$$$ (like Jackson) to get it.
