According to an investigation by The New York Times published Friday morning, May 30, the billionaire entrepreneur was using the anesthetic/analgesic so frequently last year that he complained it was damaging his bladder.
The report, based on interviews with more than a dozen people close to the 53-year-old Musk as well as private messages, said he also took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms.
"And he traveled with a daily medication box that held about 20 pills, including ones with the markings of the stimulant Adderall, according to a photo of the box and people who have seen it," the Times report said.
The story says it's unclear whether Musk was taking drugs when he assumed the role as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in late January.
Musk had not yet commented on the story but is scheduled to speak to reporters on Friday with President Trump at the White House as Musk wraps up his work with DOGE.
