The death of porn star Yurizan Beltran has been ruled an accidental overdose of the opioid hydrocodone, this according to the Los Angeles County Coroner.

Hydrocodone is a prescription opioid, which is commonly known as Vicodin. Beltran's boyfriend, Nick Melillo, told Newsweek after her death that he believed she died from prescription pills but did not know what she had taken.

"She died in her sleep," Melillo had said.

Another significant cause of death, the coroner said, was bronchopneumonia, an inflammation of the lungs.

Beltran passed away last December, a few days after another porn star, August Ames, took her own life.

She was 31.
