Ohio runs out of one drug for executions, turns to new drugs Oct 28th 2013, 17:25 CLEVELAND | Mon Oct 28, 2013 1:25pm EDT CLEVELAND (Reuters) - Ohio said on Monday that it does not have enough of the lethal injection drug pentobarbital to carry out a scheduled execution next month and will switch to two new drugs. Ohio corrections spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said the state will use the drugs midazolam and hydromorphone in the scheduled execution of Ronald Phillips on November 14. The Ohio announcement comes as several U.S. states scramble to obtain drugs for executions from so-called "compounding pharmacies" after major pharmaceutical companies, especially in Europe, opposed using their drugs in applying the death penalty.
