It seems like every time you turn on the television there is another celebrity that has died from an accidental overdose. All these celebs like Anna Nicole Smith, Heath Ledger and the most provocative, Michael Jackson, were prescribed prescription drugs by their physicians. It brings to question if doctors are responsible for their addictions and tragic deaths?

Hollywood has a long history of doctors aiding celebrities to harm themselves. Just recently Los Angeles prosecutors brought charges of manslaughter to Michael Jackson's physician Conrad Murray. The cardiologist worked door Michael Jackson from the spring of 2009 until his untimely death in late June.

After Michael's death, Dr. Murray admitted to administering sleep aides to help Jackson's insomnia. According to the coroner, Jackson did from "acute Propofol intoxication".

Murray stated that it was one of many prescription drugs he gave Michel that day he passed away. As shocking as it is, Propfol is an anaesthetic used in hospitals to render patients unconscious.

This war on drugs has got to stop. Just recently child actor Corey Haim became another casualty. There has been no official report on his cause of death, however it is suspected that he passed away of an accidental prescription drug overdose. These celebs as well as every day people are getting prescription drugs form somewhere; that somewhere being their physicians. This raises the question; are doctors responsible?
