INDIANAPOLIS (AP) _ The Indiana Attorney General's Office is appealing two rulings striking down part of the state's ban on synthetic drugs.

In similar decisions in two cases on Jan. 27, the Indiana Court of Appeals ruled a portion of Indiana's synthetic drug ban was unconstitutional because its definition of which substances are illegal is too hard to find in some cases.

The statute bans more than 80 chemical compounds and their lookalikes, plus any substance declared a synthetic drug by the Indiana Pharmacy Board. The Court of Appeals struck down the Pharmacy Board portion of the prohibition. The Attorney General's Office appeals those ruling to the Indiana Supreme Court late last week.

Legislation currently pending in the Indiana House would clarify where banned drugs can be found online and in state code.
