Demi Lovato is recovering well

Hollywood singer Demi Lovato who was hospitalised for drug overdose is now "getting better".

With the help from her family and visits from her ex-boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama, she is recuperating from the overdose.

Paramedics have given her a dose of Narcan, used to reverse overdoses, reported E! Online.

American TV actor Valderrama paid a visit on Wednesday, the day she was hospitalised and also a day after that.

In the day she got hospitalised for her overdose, her aunt Kemi Dunn took to Twitter to report that she was "awake and responsive".

In March, the 'Sorry Not Sorry' singer celebrated six years of sobriety.

Lovato is well known for her struggle with substance abuse for years, and recently she gave fans a sneak peek into her life when she talked about her struggles with addiction in the documentary- 'Simply Complicated'.

On a related note, the American singer's upcoming concert in Atlantic City has been canceled in the wake of her hospitalisation.
