Late last month, the
New York Times published an eyebrow-raising story in which sources claiming that billionaire Elon Musk was traveling with a "daily medication box that held about 20 pills."
The mercurial CEO has long been known to indulge in drugs, including ketamine, which he has previously claimed to use as an antidepressant,
with more reporting linking him to LSD, ecstasy, cocaine, and more.
His ketamine indulgence became so severe that
he reportedly told people close to him that it had started affecting his bladder, a known side effect of heavy use of the anaesthetic.
As their relationship imploded, president Donald Trump reportedly called Musk a "big-time drug addict" behind closed doors,
according to the Washington Post. In front of reporters, however, the president took a characteristically vague tone, saying that he "really" doesn't know if Musk took drugs while in the White House.
"I hope not," Trump
told reporters last week.
All of that media attention has clearly gotten to the richest man in the world. In the early morning hours of Tuesday, Musk
posted a screenshot of a drug test, allegedly showing that he had tested negative last week for more than a dozen drugs, including ketamine, ecstasy, phencyclidine (PCP), and benzodiazepines, a class of depressants conventionally prescribed to treat anxiety disorders or insomnia. The test was conducted by a lab in South Austin, Texas, on June 11.
"Lol," Musk wrote in the caption. He provided no evidence that the drug test was based on his own samples.
