Billy Joel's daughter Alexa Ray is fine after an unsuccessful suicide attempt.
"While there's nothing funny about a suicide attempt," says ACSH's Jeff Stier, "there is a bit of a sad irony here. She attempted to 'overdose' on the homeopathic sleep aid Traumeel. She tried to kill herself using a homeopathic drug, so it didn't do anything. It couldn't have done anything to her at any dose, because there is no active medicine in there." You never know what's in a so-called homeopathic remedy, though, so ACSH wouldn't recommend experiments and stunts using one.
