Description

Barbiturates were first developed in 1864 by Adolf von Baeyer and were widely distributed by the Farbwerke Fr Bayer and Co in 1904. Barbiturates offered new treatment to patients with psychiatric and neurological disorders profoundly improving their prognoses. Barbiturates were also used to treat sleep disorders and were the first drugs to effectively treat epileptic seizures. Due to safety concerns related to drug dependence and overdose and new safer psychoactive medications barbiturate use sharply declined in the 1950s. PMID: 18568113 Butalbital, in conjunction with aspirin, acetaminophen and/or caffeine, is used to treat migraine and tension-type headaches. The use of butalbital can lead to intoxication, hangover, tolerance, dependence and toxicity. Patients on high doses of butalbital may experience withdrawal upon discontinuing the drug.
