On October 28, 2023, beloved actor Matthew Perry, known for his iconic role as Chandler Bing in “Friends,” passed away. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office revealed that the cause of death was the acute effects of ketamine. Perry had been undergoing ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety. The toxicology report indicated high levels of ketamine in his postmortem blood, leading to cardiovascular overstimulation and respiratory depression.

His “Friends” cast members expressed deep grief, remembering him as more than just a colleague. Jennifer Aniston shared that Perry seemed happy and healthy before his untimely passing.
