Page "Propofol" Paragraph 17

Attention to the risks of off-label use of propofol increased in August 2009 due to the Los Angeles County coroner's conclusion that Michael Jackson died from a mixture of propofol and the benzodiazepine drugs lorazepam on top of diazepam ingested earlier.

According to a 22 July 2009, search warrant affidavit unsealed by the district court of Harris County, Texas, Jackson's personal physician, Conrad Murray, administered 25 milligrams of propofol diluted with lidocaine shortly before Jackson's death.

This case went to trial as the People of the State of California v. Conrad Robert Murray.

: On 7 November 2011, jurors found Murray guilty of involuntary manslaughter in Jackson's death, and on 29 November 2011, he was sentenced to four years in Los Angeles county jail without probation.
