(December 10, 2007)--The late son of reality TV star Anna Nicole Smith was killed by a combination of methadone and the antidepressants Zoloft and Lexapro.

A pathologist announced the finding during testimony in the inquest on the September 2006 death of Daniel Smith.

Dr. Govinda Raju says the drug cocktail that would have turned lethal after about five hours.

The conclusion confirms the findings of a private doctor who examined the 20-year-old's body after he died in the Bahamas.

His mother, the Houston-born former Playboy Playmate, collapsed and died on Feb. 8 in Florida from an overdose of drugs.

A lawyer for Anna Nicole Smith's attorney-turned-boyfriend Howard K. Stern, who was also in the hospital room the day Daniel died, said the drugs he was taking were all for either depression
or back pain.

Testimony is scheduled to resume in Nassau Tuesday.
