Matthew Perry<\/strong>‘s death was not the effect of a fentanyl or meth overdose, at least that’s what initial tests indicate … TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n Law enforcement sources tell TMZ investigators ran a less-in-depth test on Perry which revealed he did not have fentanyl or meth in his system. However, it’s important to note, more in-depth tests are still being conducted as part of toxicology to analyze whether any other illegal drugs present in his blood — and if the levels of any prescription meds were at harmful doses.<\/p>\n Those results will likely take anywhere from 4-6 months to be returned, and once all that data is gathered, the coroner will determine the cause and manner of death.<\/p>\n As we first reported, the prescription drugs found<\/strong> in Matthew’s house were all prescribed to the actor for his various ailments, and stored in proper bottles.<\/p>\n If something illicit were to come back in his autopsy results, LAPD’s Robbery Homicide Division<\/strong> would continue to investigate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n RHD’s involvement initially had people scratching their heads, especially as there’s currently NO evidence of foul play … however, it’s common for detectives from that division to take the lead on high-profile cases because of its experience and dedicated manpower.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As TMZ first reported, Matthew was found unresponsive<\/strong> in his hot tub Saturday at his home in the Pacific Palisades after playing pickleball for a couple hours earlier that day at Riviera Country Club.<\/p>\n While it appears he died from drowning, the Coroner will have the official word, once all the testing is complete.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The fact initial testing shows no overdose from meth or fentanyl — a far too common killer in America’s opioid epidemic — falls in line with what people close to Matthew have told us … that he was sober and “never happier<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n
