Elon Musk has reportedly tested negative for fentanyl, ketamine and a cocktail of other drugs amid rumors of his crippling habit severing his ties to the White House.
Musk shared a photo of results on X early this morning with the caption ‘lol,’ most likely referencing accusations surrounding his drug use.
The image shows he tested negative for 22 substances, including benzodiazepines, amphetamines, ecstasy, cocaine, ketamine, opioids, cannabis and fentanyl.
He also previously claimed to have been prescribed the powerful anesthetic ketamine for depression.
According to the image, the urine test was performed June 11 at Fastest Labs of South Austin in Texas.
The results come weeks after a bombshell New York Times report claiming Musk was taking so much ketamine that is had begun affecting his bladder, which could include pain and control issues.
He also took ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms and travelled with a daily pill box that contained about 20 different drugs, including Adderall, sources allege.
President Donald Trump also allegedly called his former ally ‘a big-time drug addict’ in a phone call just before the pair’s massive feud, the Washington Post reported.

While the drug test results are negative, urine drug tests can only detect substances for anywhere from one to seven days. Other measures like hair follicle tests can detect substance abuse dating back six months.
This means it’s possible Musk only stopped taking drugs for a few days, and it’s still possible he has a history of drug abuse.
Prior to posting the results, the Tesla CEO had shared a post from an X user that read: ‘If Elon is on any drugs, I want what he’s having.’
He also previously defended himself on X, writing: ‘I tried *prescription* ketamine a few years ago and said so on X, so this is not even news. It helps for getting out of dark mental holes, but haven’t taken it since then.’
He also accused the NYT of lying in their report.
Ketamine is an anesthetic turned party drug that has emerged as an unlikely FDA-approved treatment for anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
But in high or frequent doses, it can attack vital organs like the heart, increasing heart rate and blood pressure. This puts more strain on the organ, which makes a heart attack more likely.
It’s also been linked to bladder pain, inflammation and urinary control issues.
