- Matthew Perry’s initial tests following his death did not indicate an overdose from fentanyl or meth. However, more in-depth tests are still being conducted to analyze whether any other illegal drugs were present in his blood and if the levels of any prescription meds were at harmful doses.
- All prescription drugs found in Matthew Perry’s house were prescribed to the actor for his various ailments and were stored in proper bottles. If something illicit comes back in his autopsy results, the LAPD’s Robbery Homicide Division would continue to investigate.

Initial tests suggest that Matthew Perry‘s death wasn’t caused by a fentanyl or meth overdose, according to law enforcement sources. Preliminary toxicology indicates no presence of these substances in his system, but comprehensive tests are ongoing to identify any illegal drugs or harmful prescription med levels.
The conclusive results from these tests, determining the cause and nature of death, are likely to take 4-6 months. The prescription drugs found at Perry’s residence were legally prescribed and kept in appropriate containers. Pending any illicit findings from the autopsy, the investigation will continue under the LAPD’s Robbery Homicide Division.

This division typically handles high-profile cases due to its experience. Perry was found unresponsive in his hot tub at his Pacific Palisades home after a pickleball game. Although suspected drowning, the official cause of death awaits the Coroner’s final word after all testing is completed.
The absence of meth or fentanyl in initial testing aligns with statements from Perry’s close contacts about his sobriety and “never happier” state.
