US singer Demi Lovato has reportedly been rushed to hospital following a suspected drug overdose. 

As TMZ reports, the 25-year-old pop singer was found unconscious by paramedics in her Hollywood Hills home on Tuesday morning, before being taken to an LA hospital. 

It is reported that Lovato was treated with Naloxone, an anti-overdose medication. 

Lovato has struggled with substance abuse for some time, which she opened up about in her 2017 documentary, Simply Complicated.

The Albuquerque-born songwriter had celebrated six years of sobriety this past March, before releasing the track, Sober, last month, in which she revealed that she had relapsed. 

TMZ are reporting that Lovato is "awake and responsive" while recovering in hospital.
