Ok, don't know why I bothered, probably not correct, but the two different lists were bothering me. I realize that Greta's was referring to scripts only, but this is my 'combined' list:

DRUGS PERPER CLAIMS TO HAVE FOUND

*Chloral Hydrate (Noctec) (drug #12)

Diphenhydramine (Bendaryl) 0.11 mg/L

*Clonazepam (Klonopin) 0.04 mg/L

*Diazepam (Valium) 0.21 mg/L

Nordiazepam (metabolite) 0.38 mg/L (not prescribed, a natural breakdown from Diazepam)

Temazepam (metabolite) 0.09 mg/L (metabolite or script: Restoril, Normison, Tenox and Temaze))

Oxazepam 0.09 mg/L (not presecribed, a natural breakdown from Diazepam)

DRUGS GRETA CLAIMS WERE IN ANNA’S ROOM (by KE, for HKE, KATZ, or KE)

Carisoprodol 350 mg - prescribed 1/2/07 Qty 194 left out of ? (muscle relaxant)

Methocarbamol 750 mg (Robaxin) 1/2/07 Qty 87 left out of ? (muscle relaxant)

*Diazepam (Valium) 10 mg 1/26/07 Qty 178 left out of 24? (anti-anxiety medication, also used as a sedative and to treat seizures)

Furosemide (Lasix) 40 mg 1/8/07 Qty 7 left out of ? (used to reduce the swelling and fluid retention)

Carisoprodol (SOMA) 350 mg - prescribed 1/26/07 Qty 111 left out of 360 (muscle relaxant) (2 SCRIPTS FOR THIS DRUG)

*Cipro 500 mg 2/6/07 Qty 15 left out of 20 pills (Antibotic)

Tamiflu 75 mg 2/5/07 Qty 8 left out of 10 pills (anti-viral medicine)

Klor-Con-M20 1/8/07 Qty 20 left out of 30 pills (Potassium)

* ONLY THESE DRUGS APPEAR ON BOTH LISTS

PERPER DID NOT FIND SOMA, METHOCARBAMOL (ROBAXIN), FUROSEMIDE (LASIX), TAMIFLU, OR KLOR-CON (POTASSIUM) that were on Greta’s list.

GRETA’S LIST DOES NOT SHOW SCRIPTS FOR BENADRYL, LORAZAPAM, (Ativan or Temesta), and TOPRIMATE (Topomax), that were on Perper’s list.

When you look at this list- you think it must be for a group of people or perhaps someone opening a small pharmacy.

Black Duffle Drugs owned and operated by Howard K Stern.
Open 24 hours. We deliver-boy, do we deliver.
If you need it or even if you don't-we have it. Cash only, of course.
Discretion guaranteed-unless there is a police investigation or sudden death.
Then we don't know you, never saw you, you did it all on your own.

Do we know if these prescriptions are originals or refills ?
Do we know if ANS had high blood pressure ?
I can't imagine why Erosevich had her on such a large dose of Lasix and potassium.
It looks like she took at least 10 doses, because 10 of the potassium are gone.
Her heart was ok, her lungs had scarring-probably from the recent pneumonia .
There are milder,potassium sparing drugs if Erosevich conjured up some reason why she needed continued diuretics.
I don't understand why Erosevich would risk that ANS, who was not in her right mind, might take either too much or too little potassium.
She could go into a fatal heart arrhythmia.
Which is hard to detect on autopsy.

Dr Baden has a show on HBO -" Autopsy ", where he solves mysterious deaths.
He has a Q &A where he answers questions.
This is what he says about potassium- http://www.hbo.com/autopsy/baden/qa_5.html

Q-" I've heard that it's nearly impossible to determine that someone has died of a potassium overdose, because potassium levels naturally rise after death. Is this true?"

Dr Baden-Potassium overdose is very difficult to determine at autopsy.

He then details that the best place to get an accurate potassium level is from the vitreous humor-the soft part of the eye.
Perper said he checked the vitreous for sodium and chloride, but, he didn't mention potassium.
I assume that checked for potassium and I assume that it was normal.
Maybe Greta or Nancy Grace will ask him next time..
You all discovered the constant grapefruit eating . Grapefruit is a great source of potassium -
maybe ANS was on heavy diuretics for a long time, as part of her Trimspa regime...
