As he prepares to leave his government post, the New York Times revealed that the world’s richest man is addicted to several drugs. This level of consumption is reportedly causing Elon Musk side effects on his health, particularly affecting his bladder.
These shocking revelations further tarnish Elon Musk’s image . While the American billionaire became one of the leading figures of the Trump administration, he has since distanced himself from it to focus on his businesses , starting with Tesla, which has been struggling in recent months due to his stances. But it is indeed an article published by the New York Times that could ignite the powder keg.
In the report, journalists reveal that the SpaceX and X CEO’s drug use was “much more serious than previously known” during Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. The report details Elon Musk’s heavy use of ketamine, ecstasy, and hallucinogenic mushrooms . Furthermore, the American billionaire reportedly made a habit of always traveling with a box full of pills, according to CNN. “Elon Musk used to travel with a box that could hold 20 pills, some of which were labeled ‘Adderall,’ according to a photo of the box and multiple witnesses who saw it,” the American media outlet reports. Used in pharmaceuticals to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Adderall and Mydayis are also misused as performance-enhancing drugs or for recreational purposes.
Elon Musk had already admitted to using ketamine
A controversial figure with a personality often described as particularly unstable and obsessive, Elon Musk had already admitted in 2024 to regularly using ketamine, taking a “small dose” approximately every two weeks to “get out of a negative state of mind.” While the New York Times reports that Musk’s drug use has become a daily habit since 2024, it is reportedly impacting his health. The billionaire is said to be experiencing side effects, particularly affecting his bladder.
Expected to hold a press conference this Friday alongside Donald Trump regarding his former role as advisor, the American president has already posted a glowing message to his right-hand man on his Truth Social network. “It will be his last day, but not really, because he will always be with us, helping us to the very end. Elon is fantastic!” he wrote.
