    Gerard Butler, who reportedly checked into rehab for prescription drug abuse, has completed the program, according to TMZ.

    "Gerard left Betty Ford early this morning and he's healthy," Butler's manager told the site.

    Gerard Butler hospitalized after surfing accident

    The 42-year-old actor checked in to the Betty Ford Center three weeks ago when he realized he had become too reliant on prescription drugs. Butler had been struggling with pain management since shooting 300 in 2006, and the issues were exacerbated when he got hurt in a surfing accident in December while filming Of Men and Mavericks, TMZ says.
