He has to plead no contest or guilty and throw himself at the mercy of the court.
Not necessarily. There is a defense called "unintentional intoxication" or something similar, according to the jurisdiction. If the toxicology reports show all he had was the Rx drugs in his system at the correct levels and if he can show he had no reason to believe they would affect him the way they did, it is a defense.
For example - assume he took Vicodin and that he has been prescribed the same dose in the past and has never had any issues with it. However, this time, he was also prescribed Torix, which, on its own, should not cause these issues and assume he was not warned about mixing Vicodin and Torix and assume it was that mixture, for the first time, that caused this, he could have a defense.
I know that is a lot of assumptions, but it would not be impossible to prove.
