Reduce doesn't add hydrogens to arbitrary molecules. It knows about standard
residues, and about what is in its "hetatm" dictionary, but nothing else.
You will need some other program to do this.
[For a "one-off" solution, I generally load the molecule into xleap, and use
it's commands to add hydrogens; (be sure to select each one and click on
"minimize selection" to get reasonably good geometries). But this works for
me because I am very experienced in xleap. You may well want to use some
other graphical or non-graphical program to do this.]

This is because "EFZ" is known to reduce (it is in its library). Maybe you
just need to change "LIG" to the real name (that used by the PDB), if you know
what it is.
