This apparently helped for a short while, but it ultimately turned out that Fisher and Dante were right to be concerned.
According to Feldman, it was a year later that he was a heroin addict, and was arrested for outstanding traffic warrants and possession.

In the interview, Corey Feldman says that up to that point he had been a drug user, smoking weed in his trailer and using cocaine with comedian Sam Kinison, but was also, as he put it, “getting back to his sober roots.”
