"oxycodone, hydrocodone"
A Doc I know gives some pretty good, basic advice. He says, "Don't combine pills that rhyme." It isn't a hard rule, but a good basic rule of thumb. Both of these are strong opiates so basically taking both is like doubling up.
So sad all around. Sounds like Ledger is the victim of either seriously bad info, trying to self medicate without proper knowledge or both. Almost makes it more tragic: could have been avoided altogether.
