Elon Musk has disclosed the results of a comprehensive drug test following allegations that he was using ketamine while at the White House.
Earlier in the month, the billionaire tech entrepreneur concluded his tenure at the helm of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), marking the end of his close association with President Donald Trump.
However, beyond his social media tirades against the POTUS, startling claims emerged accusing Musk of consuming drugs during his time at the White House.
A shocking report in the New York Times cited sources alleging that the 53-year-old Musk carried a ‘pill box’ containing medications during his travels. The report claimed he used drugs such as ketamine, ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms, and Adderall as frequently as once a day last year.
In response, Musk has dispelled these rumors by sharing the outcomes of a laboratory drug test, which indicate he is ‘negative’ for all substances tested.
The document confirming his test results shows that he underwent a urine analysis on June 11 this year for 19 substances, including amphetamines, ecstasy, cocaine, and ketamine, all of which returned ‘negative’ results.
He succinctly captioned the report with ‘lol’ in his Twitter post.
The drug test results come amid Musk’s highly publicized dispute with Trump following his departure from DOGE, during which the billionaire linked the POTUS to pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The two subsequently exchanged a series of insults.
According to reports, Trump advised Vice President JD Vance to exercise caution regarding the dispute and allegedly referred to Musk as an ‘addict’ who had ‘lost his mind’ after leaving the administration.
The Washington Post reported that Trump became concerned about Musk’s alleged drug use, describing him as a ‘big-time drug addict’ to his associates.
Publicly, however, Trump dismissed these allegations, telling reporters: “I really don’t know, I don’t think so, I hope not,” when questioned about Musk’s drug use at the White House.
“I wish him well… I just wish him well, very well, actually,” he further commented.
In the New York Times article, sources could not verify whether Musk’s alleged drug use occurred during his leadership of DOGE or during the 2024 campaign, though it was reportedly so persistent that it caused him bladder issues.
Reacting to the publication at the time, the father-of-14 criticized the report to Fox News, questioning, “The New York Times. Is that the same publication that got a Pulitzer Prize for false reporting on the Russiagate? Let’s move on.”
He also took to Twitter to assert that he is ‘NOT taking drugs,’ clarifying that he had ‘tried *prescription* ketamine a few years ago’ but hasn’t ‘taken it since then.’
“The New York Times was lying their a** off,” he added.
