Lil Xan's stage name might be inspired by his love of prescription medications, but it seems the death of several close friends has caused the rapper to realize that recreational pill-popping can have deadly consequences.
According to TMZ, Xan (nee Diego Leanos) has announced plans to enter rehab in order to seek help for an addiction to opioids.
Her cause of death has not yet been determined, but many are already wondering if Chyna's much-publicized demons were responsible.
It looks like Captain Jack Sparrow will be sailing the seven seas stone sober from now on.

Criticism of VH1's Celebrity Rehab spread almost as fast.

One year after actor Eric Roberts completed a stint in Celebrity Rehab for marijuana "dependency," he's pushing for its legalization, which will never happen.
Eric, who made news last fall for calling Kate Gosselin a child abuser, says if alcohol is legal, weed should be, given the infallible logic that "Alcohol has destroyed whole civilizations whereas pot has only made a few hippies happy."
No, this isn't an article from 2007 that we misfiled.
The Hills and Laguna Beach alum Jason Wahler, whose DUI arrests, fights and stints in rehab kept us busy for several years, says he's a changed man.
Looks like this season could be the last for Celebrity Rehab.
The sixth season of the VH1 show is currently airing, with the likes of Michael Lohan, Amy Fisher, and Bai Ling seeking help from the best.
We don't admire Amy Fisher for shooting her lover's wife in the face in 1992.
Nor are we really on board with the Long Island Lolita's move into porn.
Just what we need: more Michael Lohan in our lives.
As previously reported, the man who actually makes us feel sorry for Lindsay Lohan leads the new cast of VH1's I've Officially Shed All Inhibitions and Morals in the Name of Publicity! Celebrity Rehab.

This past Sunday was "family day" in VH1's Celebrity Rehab.
Astonishingly, Michael Lohan's stood him up in that piece.
Earlier this week, Michaele Salahi was kicked off Celebrity Rehab because she lacked the one thing people entering rehab typically possess - addiction.
No clue why the show didn't establish this ahead of time, but Michaele's husband, Tareq Salahi is threatening to sue, and that's not even the half of it.
White House party crasher and The Real Housewives of D.C. annoyance Michaele Salahi was just kicked off Celebrity Rehab. The reason for this is simple:
She has no actual addition.
With Lindsay Lohan working to stay sober and stay out of jail for felony grand theft, her dad has joined Celebrity Rehab for anger management issues.
Her mom, who does not care for her dad, calls this "unforgivable."
Michaele AND Tareq Salahi, the couple that allegedly crashed the White House and went on to Real Housewives of D.C. quasi-fame, is off to Celebrity Rehab.
Yesterday, we reported that Michael Lohan, Lindsay's dad, will also be in the cast. Are the people this season addicted to fame? Probably more than that.
Michael Lohan is checking into rehab.
Of course, it's Michael Lohan, and he doesn't so much as breathe if it doesn't get him some publicity, so he's going to Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
A new season of VH1's Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew and the romantic life of former Tiger Woods mistress Rachel Uchitel is the center of attention.
With no usage of the words "Tiger" or "Woods" of course.
In a rare TV interview, Tiger Woods' famed mistress Rachel Uchitel spoke on the Today Show about her addiction to love and how that led her astray.
Appearing alongside her Celebrity Rehab mentor, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Rache promoted her stint on the VH1 program and explained why she went on it.
Not even 24 hours after bolting Celebrity Rehab, Rachel Uchitel is back, baby.
Tiger Woods' preferred mistress quit the VH1 reality show after storming off in a huff, but agreed to come back after producers tracked her down.
Declaring "I quit" and running away from the set, Rachel Uchitel apparently couldn't handle the intense pressure of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
Instead, Tiger Woods' mistress checked into a swanky hotel.
She's been in Celebrity Rehab less than a week, and Rachel Uchitel has already licked her addiction to prescription drugs ... yup, Dr. Drew is just that good!
Actually, she was never was addicted in the first place.
