So does this mean her cause of death would be the end result of the drugs and not the drugs?

Huh? I don't understand your question.

For example a person has surgery for say gallstones.. After surgery the person gets pneumonia and dies. Cause of death would be listed as pneumonia, not gallbladder surgery... so my question is if the drugs caused her to have a heart issue that day and she died as a result of the heart issue the cause of death would be Coronary failure, not prescription drug abuse.
