A COCKTAIL of sex enhancing drugs were found by paramedics in the Thai hotel room where cricket legend Shane Warne passed away, a medical report reveals.
Sporting hero Warne died aged 52 in March 2022 from a massive heart attack while on holiday on the tropical island Koh Samui.

He was found unresponsive by a pal just an hour after two massage girls were seen on CCTV leaving his £2,000-a-night hotel room.
The story of Warne’s tragic death hit the headlines again last weekend after a new report claimed that investigating police officers quietly removed the Kamagra they found in Warne’s room.
And this week, news.com.au said the cricketing great openly discussed using Viagra during his love affair with Liz Hurley and wasn’t in any way embarrassed about it.
Now we can reveal that according to a medical report paramedics discovered two types of Viagra and a drug which improves longevity in the bedroom after his death.
The potent mix of powerful sex drugs was noted by medics who transported Warne to Thailand International Hospital on Koh Samui.
On the report – unearthed more than three years after his death – three drugs were listed under the heading “medicine”.
These included Sildenafil, sold under the brand name Viagra; Kamagra, a knock off Viagra which comes in jelly sachets; and Dapoxetine, a tablet which prevents premature ejaculation.
Kamagra is illegal in Thailand, but the unregulated drug is readily available over the counter in pharmacies for as little as £7 a sachet.
And while Viagra and Dapoxetine are legal through a prescription, the drugs are also easy to buy on the black market.
It’s not clear if Warne took the sex boosting drugs before his death.
But the star was known to have heart problems and taking such a cocktail of blood pumping drugs – which come with a cautionary warning for heart patients – could have been dangerous.
A post-mortem exam conducted in Thailand determined the legendary cricketer died of “natural causes” and suffered from congenital heart weakness.
The report ruled out any foul play.
As his death shocked the sporting world, more details started to emerge with two young massage girls seen leaving his room on CCTV.
The pair were quizzed by police, but no further action was taken.
It’s understood pals found Warne unconscious on his bed at around 5pm and called for an ambulance at 5.40pm.
The medical report reveals that paramedics arrived at 6pm and began CPR on the cricket ace ten minutes later.
When he arrived at hospital doctors intubated the star and pumped him with adrenaline and sodium bicarbonate in a bid to bring him round.
On the hospital gurney, tests revealed the oxygen content in Warne’s blood had plummeted to 40 per cent, according to the report.
In total, medics tried to resuscitate the cricketer for 43 minutes before he was officially pronounced dead at 6.53pm.

Speaking at the time Dr Dulyakit Wittayachanyapong, who oversaw the bid to save the legend’s life, told Sun Online: “When he arrived at hospital his face was green and pale, he had black blood in his nose and mouth, which was unusual.
“There was no sign of life.”
Warne was staying at the luxurious Smujana Villas resort and was on a boys holiday with three other friends, arriving with them on the tropical paradise on March 3.
The villas, which come with their own infinity pool, overlook the stunning Gulf of Thailand.
During a glittering 15-year career in international cricket, Warne was known as much for his skills on the pitch as he was for his ferocious appetite for sex and partying.
His ten-year marriage to Simone Callahan, the mother of his three children broke down.
He was also engaged to model and actress Liz Hurley, but the pair split before marrying.
A Cricket Australia doctor said at the time that Warne’s death was a long time coming due to the spin king’s lifestyle.
Dr. Peter Brukner said: “Warney, if he had heart disease, which sounds like he did, you know, that didn’t happen overnight in Thailand.
“It’s been happening for 20, 30 years from smoking, poor diet, etc, etc.”
The leg spinner was a habitual smoker and drinker throughout his adult life.
Shane Warne: The one and only King of Spin
By Joshua Jones, Sun’s Sport Reporter
SHANE WARNE could do things with a cricket ball no one had seen before – and we will likely never see anyone do it better
For many, the King of Spin was the best. The greatest ever.
His 708 Test wickets for Australia is the most from a leg spinner in the history of the game.
Off spinner Muttiah Muralitharan got to 800 for Sri Lanka but Warne was a different breed.
His sheer talent and effervescent personality perfectly epitomised with his ‘Ball of the Century’ – or simply ‘That Ball’ – to utterly bamboozle Mike Gatting during the 1993 Ashes.
Warne was a giant of cricket and those who witnessed him perform his magic on the pitch can count themselves extremely fortunate indeed.
But Warnie was so much more than an excellent cricketer – a truly brilliant character who was the best in the world at his trade yet remarkably down to earth, witty, personable and, frankly, likeable.
He was mischievous, too. Warne liked a cigarette, enjoyed a beer and was never far from the party – after all, he was so often its life and soul.
By his own admission, the womanising Aussie was far from squeaky clean, though.
He was married to model Simone Callahan for ten years, having three children together before she left him amid cheating rumours.
Reports of flings were not uncommon and the most famous of his turbulent romances was with model and actress Liz Hurley – even getting engaged before breaking things off.
Despite his relationship breakdowns, Warne was a loyal father to Brooke, Summer and Jackson, especially once he retired from cricket in 2013.
But his dreams of becoming a doting grandfather were heartbreakingly crushed when he died suddenly of a heart attack in Thailand in 2022, aged just 52.
Three years on, Warnie is still bitterly missed by all – his friends, his family and the cricket world he lit up so spectacularly.
There really only ever will be one Shane Warne.
