Jonathan Rhys Meyers was hospitalized in London this week after a possible suicide attempt involving pills, according to a report.
The star of The Tudors, 33, who has battled alcohol addiction over the years, was found slumped on the floor of his home Tuesday night by paramedics answering an emergency call, the Sun reports.
He reputedly refused treatment, so the paramedics called the police, and Meyers was taken to hospital.
"He did relapse but he did not try to commit suicide," says a source. "He was taken to the hospital and then released." His rep has no comment.
A Scotland Yard spokesman tells PEOPLE: "We can confirm we were called by the London Ambulance Service to an address in NW8 to report to a man refusing treatment. Police attended, and the man was taken by ambulance to a central London hospital. That was the end of our involvement."
The actor was reportedly discharged from hospital early Wednesday.

Such sad, scary news!
I absolutely adore him. Velvet Goldmine was my no. 1 movie during my teen years and remains a favorite. And The Tudors was my favorite TV show. Such a talented, handsome dude. So glad he wasn't successful, if it was indeed a suicide attempt. Would've been a terrible loss. Hope he's able to sort it all out.
