"Elon Musk Refutes Drug Use Allegations Amid Concerns from Tesla and SpaceX Executives"

Elon Musk has responded to a Wall Street Journal report concerning his alleged drug use by stating he has passed all random drug tests with no trace of drugs or alcohol found in his system over the past three years. This follows concerns from Tesla and SpaceX executives about his behavior, particularly after Musk smoked marijuana on the "Joe Rogan Experience" in 2018. Musk's attorney, Alex Spiro, confirmed Musk has never failed a test, although the report suggests Musk's drug use has been a topic of informal discussion among Tesla board members for years. Musk has admitted to using ketamine to treat depression, a use which is currently being explored in clinical trials despite it only being FDA-approved as an anesthetic. Elon Musk remains the wealthiest person in the world with a net worth valued at $243.5 billion.
