Common NameSecobarbital
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionSecobarbital is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a barbiturate derivative drug. It possesses anaesthetic, anticonvulsant, sedative and hypnotic properties. In the United Kingdom, it was known as Quinalbarbitone. Secobarbital binds at a distinct binding site associated with a Cl- ionopore at the GABAA receptor, increasing the duration of time for which the Cl- ionopore is open. The post-synaptic inhibitory effect of GABA in the thalamus is, therefore, prolonged.

Toxicity Profile
Route of ExposureOral (1); Parenteral (1); Rectal (1).
Mechanism of ToxicitySecobarbital binds at a distinct binding site associated with a Cl- ionopore at the GABAA receptor, increasing the duration of time for which the Cl- ionopore is open. The post-synaptic inhibitory effect of GABA in the thalamus is, therefore, prolonged.
Metabolism Route of Elimination: Barbiturates are metabolized primarily by the hepatic microsomal enzyme system, and the metabolic products are excreted in the urine and, less commonly, in the feces.
Toxicity ValuesNot Available
Lethal DoseNot Available
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Uses/SourcesFor the Short-term treatment of intractable insomnia for patients habituated to barbiturates
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
Health EffectsSecobarbital causes slurred speech, disorientation and "drunken" behavior. It is physically and psychologically addictive.
SymptomsSymptoms of an overdose typically include sluggishness, incoordination, difficulty in thinking, slowness of speech, faulty judgment, drowsiness or coma, shallow breathing, staggering, and in severe cases coma and death.
