we learned about the factors that determine how the body responds to drugs. One of the major concerns about drug use is what happens when people take multiple drugs at the same time. Combining certain drugs may not only cause damage to various organs and systems, but can result in catastrophic outcomes, including death. 

There are numerous examples of deadly drug interactions, particularly among people who are in the public eye. Despite significant media coverage about such events, and warnings from experts about the dangers of combining drugs, the problem persists. For this discussion, do the following:

• Select 1 person in the public eye who is known to have died as a consequence of multiple drug use. This person can be an actor, singer, athlete, performer, politician, social media influencer, etc.
• Provide a brief bio of the person (who were they, why were they famous, etc.), and what is known about their drug history.
• What drugs were implicated in their death?
• What were the circumstances surrounding their death? Was it an accidental overdose, an intentional act, or an act of homicide?
• Do you think the person was aware of the dangers of taking more than one drug at a time?

Use APA format to cite your sources, both in-text and in your reference section. A minimum of two (2) citations are required to support your position.
