Mischa Barton Hospitalized

Mischa BartonTMZ has learned that actress Mischa Barton was rushed to the hospital this evening after suffering an adverse reaction to medication.

Sources tell TMZ that the former "OC" star was at a friend's Memorial Day BBQ enjoying a few holiday cocktails when she began to feel extremely ill. Mischa, who has been quite sick with bronchitis since traveling to Cannes, London and Paris the past several weeks, apparently didn't get the memo -- you can't drink alcohol while taking antibiotics!

The 21-year-old celeb was rushed to an undisclosed medical facility in Los Angeles, where we are told she is "resting comfortably."

A rep for Barton tells TMZ that the starlet is with family and "feeling much better."

31. If she has bronchitis, why the heck is she drinking cocktails? Not to mention the fact that most medications say you shouldn't take meds with alcohol. I realize a lot of people don't follow that rule, but she ought to have expected the risk of making herself sick.

33. Maybe she should quit smoking too! Bronchitis and smoking don't mix. How dumb are these people?

34. "apparently didn't get the memo -- you can't drink alcohol while taking antibiotics!"


The only antibiotic that you can't take with alcohol is metrodiazonole. And you don't take that for bronchitis. I hate it when the media prints myths as fact. TMZ get your facts straight.

39. What a laugh, did her publicist say she had an adverse reaction to medication with a straight face?

40. A reaction because she was mixing booze and antibiotics? Does anyone realize that being in the sun while taking antibiotics is much more serious?

Harvey, with your law degree posted on your wall, you certainly have no brains if you have to resort to this.

43. thats a negative of friend of my parents was there he was the paramedic that treated her he said she overdosed on illegal drugs and that all her friends were putting a rag over her face so that popperazzi wouldn't get a picture of her and he had to take it off so just in case she threw up she wouldn't asphixiate. And thats the truth.

45. One of these girls, Mischa, Lindsey, Nicole, Paris, Britney, etc. is going to die soon of an overdose or car crash or alcohol poisoning, a fall or something. And when it happens, it will be tragic and the press will say ad nauseum, "Why? Why didn't their friends and family do something? How will we go on without them? She was so talented. What a waste." Blah, blah, blah. RIP whoever is first.
