A list of drugs that were in Brittany Murphy's system when she died has been released.
In the report, which was made available today, it also confirms that the cause of the actress's death was accidental.

According to TMZ, the LA County Coroner listed multiple medications present in the late star's blood "with elevated levels of hydrocodone, acetaminophen, and chlorpheniramine. L-methamphetamine was also present".
