According to an autopsy report released Thursday by the L.A. County Coroner, Whitney Houston died from an accidental drowning in a hotel bathtub, but the "effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use" were contributing factors in her death.
The 48-year-old singer was "found submerged in bathtub filled with water" and "no trauma or foul play is suspected," the coroner said.
The toxicology tests found several drugs in her body, including marijuana, Xanax, the muscle relaxant Flexeril and the allergy medicine Benadryl, the report said. But these drugs "did not contribute to the death", it said.
The final coroner report is expected to be made public within two weeks.
