Euthanasia and lethal injection are related but distinct concepts. Euthanasia refers to the practice of intentionally ending a person's life to relieve suffering, often in cases of terminal illness, and can be administered through various methods, including lethal injection. Lethal injection is a specific method of execution used primarily in capital punishment cases, involving a series of drugs to induce death. While both involve the act of causing death, euthanasia is typically voluntary and aimed at alleviating suffering, whereas lethal injection is a state-sanctioned method of execution.
