Some of the pills found in singer Prince's home after his death were labeled as hydrocodone but actually contained the powerful opioid fentanyl, which is 50 times more potent than heroin. This, according to Voice of America, was reported by sources close to the investigation into the causes of the performer’s death.
An autopsy revealed that the singer who died on April 21 died from unintentional overdose fentanyl. According to the source, Prince at the time of death weighed just 51 kg, and his body contained a dose of fentanyl, capable of killing any person.
Prince had no recipe for fentanyl.
According to sources, about two dozen tablets in a vial of Aleve, found in the estate of singer Paisley Park in Minnesota, had the wrong label Watson 385, reported the Star Tribune newspaper in Minneapolis.
The police are not sure how Fentanyl got into the body of the 57-year-old singer, however, the version is being considered that he took the pills, not knowing that they contained this drug.
Although the investigation is not yet complete, the investigation concludes that Prince may have been a victim of the drug counterfeiting industry, which has grown to crisis national scales in recent years.
Earlier, forensic experts concluded that there is no reason to believe that Prince committed suicide. As the police reported, Prince was found in the elevator of the Paisley Park Studios Prince studio complex.
Suspicions that Prince abused opioids, sounded earlier. In mid-April, he was taken by ambulance to the Illinois hospital immediately after the next concert, but after a few hours the musician was discharged.
Referring to an unnamed source, the American showbiz news website TMZ reported that Prince was provided with medical assistance in connection with the intoxication with the anesthetic Percocet, a synthetic opioid.
In addition, as reported by AP, in a recent interview, the singer talked about how he suffered from epilepsy during his childhood, and his close friends who knew him said that he suffered from problems with his joints.
Prince, who was included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, was one of the most influential and popular American musicians.
