Physician Gave Propofol to Michael Jackson as a Sleep Aid

The never-ending story behind the real cause of death of Michael Jackson continues. Sleeping aids were said to be the reason and while many presumed that it was a mild case of overdose, new evidence shows it was way beyond that. And according to the Washington post, the sleep aid was Propofol.

What the heck is Propofol?

Propofol, also known as Diprivan, is an IV anesthetic agent typically used in operating rooms to put patients to sleep in about a minute. In drip form, it keeps them asleep. It’s reserved for procedures where a patient would otherwise be uncomfortable — say, plastic surgery, a colonoscopy or hip replacement — but must be meticulously monitored because the drug can stop a person’s breathing.

Propofol is fairly easy for a doctor to acquire, but is never intended for home use, where proper equipment to resuscitate a patient is typically absent

We are all aware of the sleeping problems of Michael Jackson and how extreme he could get just to get some good sleep. And so now the question remains, did Michael Jackson want it or did his physician purposely give it to hear the end of Michael’s continued complaint about his sleep problem?

For now, all eyes are on his physician, Conrad Murray who has been treating Jackson’s Insomnia problem. He claimed that he feared Michael was growing addicted to it, referring to it as milk. If he knew this from the start, then why didn’t he stop it? Well, it looks like Dr. Murray is in a very deep hole!
