Actress Heather Locklear was medically stable in an intensive care unit Friday following an emergency call that brought paramedics to her home, a hospital spokeswoman said.

“She is still with us, she’s resting comfortably and she is being evaluated,” Los Robles Hospital spokeswoman Kris Carraway-Bowman told The Associated Press. The 50-year-old “Melrose Place” actress was receiving one-on-one care in the ICU, she said.

No reason for Locklear’s hospitalization was released. Locklear’s publicists have not returned calls seeking comment.

She was taken to the hospital in Thousand Oaks from her home in Westlake Village on Thursday. Ventura County sheriff’s Capt. Mike Aranda said that deputies were not investigating.

Locklear has been hospitalized several times over the years. In 2009, she pleaded no contest to reckless driving after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of prescription medication.

Sources tell TMZ that Locklear had mixed prescription drugs and alcohol Thursday and that her family wants her in rehab.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
