An autopsy was performed Monday. On Tuesday, Her Majesty's Coroner Linda P. Virgill said that based on preliminary findings, "the cause of death is not natural." But, she said, "we wish to reserve [announcing] the cause of death at this time," adding that a toxicology results and a full autopsy report will be released by the end of the week.
Virgill said an inquest will take place afterward and her staff will interview all "relevant witnesses," including Anna Nicole Smith, hospital workers and flight attendants, to develop an official timeline.
The coroner's statements came in the wake of a story in the Nassau Guardian that Daniel Smith suffered a "massive heart attack" and that antidepressants had been found in his system. The newspaper said that Daniel was seen "vomiting uncontrollably" shortly before his death

He may have od'd on antidepresent pills. He just started taking them six weeks prior. Thou anna is having another autopsy done now. Its horrible and very sad.
"Forensic pathologist Cyril Wecht said Daniel Smith was being treated for depression that began about four to six weeks earlier, but he did not know whether the medication played any role in his death, which came three days after his celebrity mother gave birth in the Bahamas."

We don't know yet and it seems that they don't really know yet although some reports said that they did know. Additionally, toxicology reports have not yet come back.
In reference to the above link, antidepressants are unlikely to kill these days.
There are inheritable characteristics like Long Q-T syndrome that can kill and leave no trace of a cause. A loud hospital noise can cause an adrenaline surge that can throw the heart into one of these deadly rhythms. Given this, a cause may never be found.

I still think drugs were involved. Look at Anna. Have you ever seen her show. You can't tell me drugs aren't in her system.
