Weight Loss Medication -- Not TRIMSPA -- Found in Anna

Anna Nicole SmithAmong the list of drugs Anna Nicole Smith took in the days leading up to her death was a growth hormone -- making it the third weight loss product Smith had taken during her reign as TRIMSPA spokesperson.

A press release issued today by Dr. Joshua Perper says that before she flew to the United States from the Bahamas, Anna had taken medications that included "Growth hormone, an alleged 'longevity'/weight reducing medication."

The Broward County Medical Examiner also released a description of the contents of Anna's hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino, in which Seminole detectives found Slim-Fast on her night table. Days after her death, TMZ obtained exclusive photographs of the inside of Anna Nicole's refrigerator, which contained several cans of the diet drink.

As you may recall, Anna credited TRIMSPA for her incredible weight loss. Now that she's been connected to TWO other weight loss supplements, it's impossible to determine if TRIMSPA alone was responsible for Anna's rapid shrinking.

The Medical Examiner's office ruled today that Anna Nicole's death was ruled an "accidental overdose."

Calls to TRIMSPA were not immediately returned.

91. moonpie - most people expected it to be a drug overdose - that's hardly news to anyone. The issue was did someone administer the fatal doses or did the people surrounding her just allow her to continue to over medicate herself. And we will never know the answer to that one. No one knows if HKS gave her a dose or help her give herself a dose before he went out to get his yacht. No one knows if the truth is being told or if people are protecting themselves. The autopsy report gives the cause of death - not the steps leading up to it.

92. Dr Pecker on purpose is stating it was a mistake she OD'd with legal drugs for one reason
The life insurance polices will now pay off so BIG payday for all those howie said would get a piece of the ANS pie

Only ME I heard of who says if someone illegally got drugs from a doctor it then makes the drugs legal.

93. I can't believe that Anna would refuse to go to the hospital, especially when urged by her surrounding friends. She had been previously hospitalized for pneumonia in the Bahamas. She didn't refuse to go then, so, why would she refuse to have gone when she was in Florida? We are suppose to believe this, just because her entourage said she didn't want to go because she didn't want media attention? Media attention! That doesn't even make sense, Anna was all about the media; the more the better. ANNA HAD A REALITY SHOW
and even after that came to an end, HK$ still continued filming her. I would tend to believe this story if the police would have kindly offered these so called friends the opportunity to take a lie detector test. If they had nothing to hide, they would have volunteered for one.

95. Enough bout Howard, he was just her pawn her gopher for everything including the medications. Howard did not have the personal strength to murder her, nor the guts.
She made her choice and did it her way she had a death wish a long long time ago it was just a matter of time when her body said thats enough.
Now here is something interesting Alex Goen and Anna yes could there be a Trimspa baby from him ? She had her bad habits one of them being that she slept with everyone that worked with her, she had a sexual appetite that was incredible if she could not have food...and only Trimspa...well never mind was Alex was just food for thought. Was she pregnant with her next child? Will Larry the slimball photographer who sold her photos to the media after she gave birth without his permission suffer any lawsuits before he even sees Dannilynn again? Stay tuned more to come this is the story of the decade by the way go type in EBAY and type in Anna Nicole Smith and see how many auctions are on her stuff..

96. i am so tired of people saying that howard loved anna. maybe you people dont know what love is. Love is taking care of the person when ill, even if they do not want to go to the hospital-you take them-you love them-you want them around not dead. if anna wanted to put a gun to her head would howard let her because that is what anna wanted. Love? howard testified at the custody hearing for annas body that she talked about death since the time he first met her and they talked about it all the time. If the person you loved seemed suicidal wouldnt you seek help-involve family-do anything to save this person. If you loved this person would you leave all this medication on nightstands, in refridgerators for a suidical person to get their hands on? Obtain drugs in your name and other aliases to give to a suidical person. Is this love? When was howard planing on being a man and standing up to her. Has he ever heard of tough love? You either clean up your act or i am out of here. But then he would have no means of support. They may not be able to prove that he had a hand in causing her death but morally he is soooo guilty=he is a piece of scum. If he told me he loved me i would run the other way as fast as i could.

i feel sorry for any of you fools that think this is love.

98. Excuse me, if I remember correctly, Howard admitted to administering Anna drugs during the joke of a court hearing in Judge Seidlin's court. On top of that, Moe also admitted that Stern injected Anna. So, you put up or shut up! He is a sleeze, period. Howard Stern is a CREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEPCREEP

99. O'Quinn on NG right now.

He said, "how the h__ could she have injected her left buttock with her right hand. I can't even get my wallet out of my back left pocket with my right hand."

100. Exactly - a drug overdose does NOT mean she did it herself. That lawyer Krista B must think the public is a bunch of dumbheads to try and pass the theory that HKS is off the hook because the autopsy says "overdose". This sick woman is laying in a bed surrounded by 4 people, HKS, Moe, his wife the nurse, and the MD psychiatrist and she just layed there and died. Gee, what is wrong with this picture? Nancy Grace show someone just said that at least the psychiatrist Kris? - should have performed her medical duties and seen to that the woman was in a hospital. We know what killed her - but not HOW. And apparently there will be no prosecution because it cannot be proved.

101. Stern's lawyer's are a bunch of assholes. Why did they do that news conference? To let the world know Stern was going to fight for custody? To let the world know there were going to be some lawsuits filed? It was rediculous for her to attack Larry. What the hell did he do but want his baby back? Those emails she claimed were from Anna complaining about Larry were obviously written by Howard. Larry said he talked to Anna about the baby clothes he sent for Christmas, and she was fine. Stern was so jealous of Larry, AND Daniel. He wanted to get rid of both of them!

PLEASE, STAR AND ENQUIRER....STAY ON THIS CASE AND GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE REAL TRUTH! WE KNOW IT WAS MURDER! TOO MANY RED FLAGS FOR ALL THIS TO BE JUST AN ACCIDENTAL DEATH FOR TWO YOUNG PEOPLE WITHIN 5 MONTHS!

102. I get ticked everytime I hear someone say Howard "loved" Anna. Sorry - keeping her on a stready stream of illegally prescribed/obtained drugs -- all CNS depressants -- is NOT love. It's selfish. If he truly loved the woman and wanted what was best for her he would have resigned as her enabler and done what he could to get her help. If she refused, love would have been walking away. His "love" contributed to her addiction and eventual overdose. As the old saying goes, with friends like that - who needs enemies?

103. MOE:

Stern's lawyer and Dr. Perper both left room for you to be the culprit in this tragedy. Be Careful.

104. One lawyer says NOT criminal or negligent.

Another lawyer says criminal AND negligent.

And we're supposed to have respect for our legal system????????????

105. The usual hypnotic dose is 500 mg to 1 g, taken 15 to 30 minutes before bedtime or ½ hour before surgery. The usual sedative dose is 250 mg three times daily after meals. Generally, single doses or daily dosage should not exceed 2 g.
Each 5 mL (teaspoonful) contains:
Chloral Hydrate, USP .................................................................................... 500 mg (7½ gr)
Dr. Gumby said ANS does was usually took 2 TABLESPOONS. Is he kidding. Read the dosing info above. Do the math 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon.
so 1 tablespoon =1250 mg. So 2 tablespoons = 2500 mg Her daily dose exceeded the maximum safe dose. AND perper says she took more than her usual dose, but it was within the therapeutic range. Is he kidding. Her usual dose exceeded the safe dose by 500 mg. This man is not being truthful.Sorry Dr. Gumby.

Posted at 8:42PM on Mar 26th 2007 by HKS do the world a favor and take a lethal dose Chloralhydrate.
