Elvis' death

Elvis Presley was died on August 16, 1977 in his bathroom in Graceland Memphis. He was of 42 that time. At time of his death he was reading a book about Turin Shroud on his chair, he had fallen off onto the floor. Panicked, his staff contacted hospital for ambulance, which rushed him to nearby Baptist Memorial Hospital, where after several attempts of reviving Elvis, he died at 3:30 pm CST. His autopsy was performed at 7:00 pm.

The official coroner's report says that "cardiac arrhythmia" is the cause of Presley's death, Presley's family and like physicians Dr. Jerry T. Francisco, Dr. Eric Muirhead and Dr. Noel Florredo said that real cause of death was a cocktail of 10 prescribed drugs taken in doses, no doctor would prescribe any medicines like The painkillers Morphine, demerol, Tranquilizers, Chloropheniramine, antihistamine, Valium, Placidyl.

Finally Four drugs were found in "significant" quantities: Codeine, an opiate, Ethinamate, largerly prescribed at the time as a "sleeping pill," Quaaludes, and a barbituate has never been identified.

On that time it was rumored that Diazepam, Nembutal, Sinutab, Amytal, Carbrital, Avental, Elavil and Valmid were found in his bloodstream.

Facts :-

Cardiac arrhythmia is scientific name of irregular heart beat.

Morphine is an acidic thing which is used as painkiller.

Chloropheniramine is a medicine used when one is suffering from skin disease.

Antihistamine is a thing which controls from cold allergies.

Tranquilizers is a drug which helps to reduce the tension.

Placidyl is used to treat insomnia, its original name is Ethchlorvynol, placidyl is just a business word.

Insomnia is an activity of sleeping disorder.

Valium is also used for treating insomia, valium is just trading name, Diazepam is its original name.

Codeine is used as a pain reliever and cough remedy.

Opiate is a medicine derived from opium.

Ethinamate is also used to treat insomnia, its not much used anymore because it becomes effectless very soon.

One more thing :-

Elvis Presley had visited his dentist at August 15th to have a temporary crown put in, it has also been suggested that the codeine the dentist gave him that day resulted in an anaphylactic shock that assisted in his death. (He had suffered allergic reactions to the medicine previously.)

So Elvis Presley never took drugs in any sense because all those medicines were prescribed and they are 100% legal in US. If those medicines are banned in your country or they are drugs according to you than its not mine or Elvis' problem, that is your problem.
