Allegations Surface: Elon Musk's Alleged Heavy Drug Use Resulted in Bladder Issues
Tesla CEO Elon Musk's alleged drug usage during the 2024 U.S. presidential campaign resulted in bladder problems, according to a report by the New York Times.
The tech titan, who served as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the Trump administration for 130 days, reportedly consumed a variety of substances, including ketamine, ecstasy, psychedelics, and Adderall, more frequently than typical use. His drug intake was so excessive that it led to bladder issues, a recognized side effect of ketamine.
Moreover, Musk was said to carry around a medication box containing roughly 20 different pills, one of which was the amphetamine Adderall. Photos of this case were cited in the report.
During a press conference with Donald Trump at the White House, Musk declined to address the allegations, questioning the credibility of the newspaper. Trump, for his part, expressed little concern about the matter, stating, "I'm not concerned about Elon."
On the departure of Musk from his government position, Trump acknowledged his "incredible service" and promised that Musk would continue to visit the White House.
In the past, Musk has beenopen about his drug use, mentioning that he uses ketamine to cope with depressive episodes, employing it about every two weeks. Previously, he was observed consuming cannabis, which is legal in several U.S. states.
The report, which drew from sources close to Musk, did not specify whether the billionaire continued his drug consumption after joining DOGE in the White House.

I'm not sure what you're talking about when it comes to a connection between Elon Musk's alleged drug usage and the fields of science, health-and-wellness, or mental-health, as the reported substances and their effects are not directly linked to these areas. However, it's worth noting that Musk has publicly discussed using ketamine, a drug often associated with mental health treatment, to cope with depressive episodes.
