Hard to say. I see anti-seizure drugs there too.

Am I the only one here who never heard of her?

Who?  All I know is she died.  Never heard of her before that.  Sorry she is gone.  Not unsympathetic, just no knowledge of her.

Carbamazepine also called Tegretol is an antisiezure medicine as well.  So it looks like two antiseizure meds, two anxiety meds, two painkillers, and one antidepressant.  Sounds more like she may have had a seizure dissorder than ch.  That coctail is very similar to what I took when I had seizures.  Need the pain meds for the train ran over my head feeling when the siezure ended.  Hmmm.  We may never know.  I dont know who she is either.

Never heard of her either till she hit the news when she died.

I take topamax for CH, but all that other stuff sounds like one hell of a cocktail... Depends on the dosage, but sounds like a lot of meds to me. And they said she had an eating disorder. Probably full on pills.

Guess it'll be a day's news when they decide to bring it up again.

She did quite a few movies, but was best known for playing the lovable, but ditzy blonde.  I watched quite a few of her movies and she was a good actress.  She is also known for her voiceover as Luann on King of the Hill.

The last movie that we watched of hers was Ramen Girl (even Jimbo watched it).

I had watched "Clueless" and "Girl Interrupted" with my niece so I guess I saw her, but don't remember.  She had a big part in "8 Mile" and is where I do remember her.  Her voice of Luann for years was familiar, too.  Lotta damn prescriptions overlapping.

I recall her mostly from her role in Clueless, but I saw her in Uptown Girls, Just Married and in Girl, Interrupted as well.
