Why Did a 90210 Doc Send Demerol to Anna's Address?

TMZ has obtained an air waybill describing two powerful prescription drugs that were sent to Anna's Bahamas mailing address when she was eight months pregnant.


The name of the doctor on the waybill is Maurice Levy, who practices internal medicine in Beverly Hills. The airbill shows the following drugs were sent to Vickie Marshall (aka Anna Nicole Smith) in the Bahamas on or about August 8, 2006 -- Vitamin B12, Vitamin B complex, Vitamin Gama, Dalmane (a drug for sleeping disorders) and Demerol (a morphine-like drug).

TMZ has spoken to Dr. Levy, who confirmed that prescriptions were sent but not written for Anna. Dr. Levy would not say for whom they actually were written. He also would not say why they were sent to Vickie Marshall if they were not for her.

Dr. Levy also told TMZ his relationship with Anna was "professional and not personal." He added, "I did some cosmetic thing, that's all."

542. ok, let's all forget all the media hipe and use our own common sense in this matter. one rule to always live by is "where there's smoke there's fire". she was receiving enough drugs to kill several people, what in the world was wrong with her that she needed all those drugs? what kind of a doctor would allow a pregnant woman to take those kid of drugs? and howard stern loved her and their baby? give me a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

543. For the record, I know Demerol is a narcotic that can be given to pregnant women. It does not cross the placenta. I believe Methadone is also not harmful to a fetus.

546. I have said all along that Howard saw a gold mine in Anna?...who was standing in his way of having complete control of her money....Daniel...so what did Howard do?....get rid of Daniel...what about all of the lawsuits from TrimSpa. against Anna....one of Howard's friend's...Howard's friend was going to get his share of the money also...he, (Howard) had the pictures taken of the Minister of Immigration in the Bahama's taken so he could blackmail him if the permament residency process wasn't hurried...what happened the pictures got out anyway....what did it cost the Immagration minister?...his job...Howard is greedy and saw $ bills in Anna, and nothing else....I don't know of any man that would want a lady in his life sleeping and flirting with every man she came in contact with....that is why the relationship Anna had with Howard was not exclusive,,,I'll bet you Howard has never been intimate with Anna....Howard kept Anna so doped up, that she didn't know what he was giving her...sounds like Howard and all of his gay friends, (which I think that Howard is gay also)....had plans of living it up in the Bahama's off whatever monies were received from the Marshall's estate....I think the judge in the Fla. hearing was being modest when he referred to Howard as an enabler....Howard is a drug supplier/pusher and used Anna like a prostitute....I don't believe she hated her mother as Howard said.....Howard did the video so that he could paint a picture of her mother as being evil so that he could have complete control over her mind....(and that he did very well.)...I am a mother and no mother in their right mind enjoys seeing their daughter exploited and used the way Howard used Anna....Howard knew Anna was near death....but he was rushing to buy the Yacht so he could take the trip to Dubai, and once he got into International waters, then he could have said that she got high on drugs and fell overboard...no one would have investigated because he could have used the fact that they were living on the Yacht...this was the reason Howard was rushing to get the contract completed.....but old no good Howard slipped up...the hole he was digging for Anna is the one he fell in.....there was no love from Howard for Anna because he only saw money...."God" will not allow Howard to use that baby for money....his word says..."you would be better off taking a noose and putting it around your neck and hang yourself if you harm/use one of his littel ones").....that is where Howard slipped up....otherwise, Howard thought he had a perfect murder scheme planned....his tears at Anna's funeral was not tears of sadness, but tears of hurt because he got beat at his own game and is probably now thinking, what in the world have I gotten myself in.....his charge from me....motive, intent, and opportunity....what a creep....anyone that would trust Howard is "Nuts"....it appears that he has gotten to Larry Birkhead......

547. it is my understanding it was birksomething's call...he emailed her a letter of discharge.....who knows why...the truth is getting stranger than fiction

548. Read this regarding effects of each medication and Demerol is included;

Medications and pregnancy

Majority of these drugs mixed together can cause a deadly interaction. By themselves not too dangerous if not taken at excessive level.

Dilaudid - Trimester specific should not be used in third trimester (last 3 months) must monitor the fetal status when used

Lorazepam (Ativan) Anxiety/Insomina - no known human fetal risk physician should decide if maternal benefit outweighs any potential risk

Soma - Musculoskelatal Pain - There are no known affects to human fetus

Dalmane - Insominia - Known to cause serious fetal defects

Methadone - Severe Pain/Withdrawal - No known risks to fetus

Demerol - No known risk to fetus. This drug is actually used with pregnanat patients and in obstetrics.

Thought this might help people to weight the pharmacological issues for themselves.

549. THE WHOLE ISSUE HERE IS -----------WHO WAS REQUESTING THE MEDICATION ORDERS................ANNA DIDNT HAVE KNOWLEDGE WHAT THE MEDICATION WERE FOR. IT MAY LOOK LIKE ANNA WAS ORDERING THIS MEDS BUT GO BACK AND RECALL THAT STERN SAID HE WAS DOING EVERYTHING FOR ANNA-----MEANING PAPERWORK ,SIGNING PAPER---EVERYTHING THAT HAD TO DO WITH PERSONAL BUSINESS. OK THE DOCTOR PROBABLY DID PRESCRIBE THE MEDICATIONS BUT WHO REQUESTED THEM--------IT WASNT ANNA FOR SURE------------IT WAS STERN MAKING THE REQUESTS. HE IS SMART ENOUGH TO HAVE WHAT THE EFFECTS OF THOSE MEDICATION WERE. -----------I MYSELF WAS INJURED AND THE ORTHOPEDIC HAD ME ON MEDICATIONSFOR THE INJURY AFTER SURGERY--------I WENT THROUGH WORKERS COMPAND WHEN WE WENT TO COURT SINCE THE INSURANCE DIDNT WANT TO PAY MY POST TREATMENT FOR PAIN AFTER THE SURGERY------THE LAWYER KNOW THE MEDICATIONS I WAS TAKING AND THEIR EFFECT--------------I AM SURE THE MAJORITY OF LAWYERS KNOW SOME MEDICAL EFFECTS OF MEDICATIONS-------THEY RESEARCH FOR THEIR CASES----------------IN THIS INSTANCE STERN KNEW WHAT HE WAS REQUESTING AND HOW TO GIVE THOSE MEDS. I REPEAT MEDICATIONS WERE FOUND IN STERNS NAME AND HE WAS DAILY AT THE POST OFFICES AS SEEN BY WITNESSES PICKING UP PACKAGES..............THE REASON STERN DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE A DNA TEST ON HIMSELF IS BECAUSE THE TRUTH WILL COME OUT----------HE WAS NEVER TAKING ANY MEDICATION----THE HAIR SAMPLE HOLDS DRUG DNA AND IT WILL PROVE HE WAS NEVER UNDER ANY MED.---------HE WAS OBTAINING THE MED TO CARRY OUT HIS PLOT.

550. Well , it looks like Howie, spent alot of his "free time" planning his future. It's obvious to all that Larry is the little girls Daddy. It doesn't surprise me that Howard is trying to "work something out" with Larry, afterall he doesn't work for his money in the sense that we all do, he works on a scam plan life, that's no way to raise a child, especially if she isn't his. Shame on you Howard, you are a loser all the way around.... Best of luck to Larry, he will be a great Dad and Anna will always be a part of the baby's life through memories. I'm sure Larry will give her all the love she'll need.. Maybe Howard can find love in prison....

551. #567 - Linda Verheggen. Finally someone with some common sense. If this reporting of ANS/HKS/LB et al is considered Journalism then we are in a massive amount of trouble with the rest of the world affairs. If we are counting on reports from Court TV, which by the way are constantly making errors (eg: that Howard wrote the will) NOT, that Larry's lawyer quit. NOT and so on. Why is it that this blog seems to captivate the gossipers with big mouths. I would hate to be in your life as a friend because I would consider that an enemy.
Wait for the facts from the courts you dummies and most importantly choose the news that reports not makes it news. THANKS

552. Its amazing that the media keeps spending so much time on this. And during all this that has been going on, we may have had some terrorist issues OR we could have some terrorist issues AND WE WOULD NEVER KNOW ABOUT IT FOR THE NEWS MEDIA STATIONS ARE ALL ENTERTAINMENT E NEWS NOW. THIS HAS REALLY JUST GOT OUT OF HAND SO MUCH AND IT WILL CONTINUE UNTIL IT DOES EXPLODE. I USED TO COULD WATCH SOME OF THE TRIALS AND CASES ON COURT TV,, BUT SINCE THE JUDGE LARRY EPISODES, THATS ABOUT ALL YOU SEE NOW. AND when you want to catch up on the news, the media stations and broadcasters have all got to be in on the saga, they want high ratings also. When is it going to end? I believe a lot of people are going to be really STUNNED when its over!!!!!!!!1

553. I sure would like to know what was on Daniel's computer.

554. What is this "cosmetic thing" Dr. Levy admits to performing on Anna while she was p.g? Anyone know?

Posted at 12:26AM on Mar 18th 2007 by lotsaBS

555. Nobody in their right mind would take that many drugs knowing they could damage her unborn child, that's why I think Anna was given/injected these drugs by HKS and the Psychiarist, and Anna thinking they were ok. I hope everyone of them lose their license permanently. What a bunch of quacks! IMO
