Medicines Phenobarbital

These have generally been replaced in veterinary medicine by inhalation anesthetics. Phenobarbital /T(9-(9G, phenytan [57-41-0], and primidone [125-33-7] are used as anticonvulsants. [Pg.405]

Of the barbiturates examined above, the most widely used in medicine are phenobarbital, amobarbital, butabarbital as well as methohexital and thiopental. [Pg.62]

Phenobarbital Phenobarbital is 5-ethyl-5-phenylbarbituric acid (4.1.4). The methods of synthesis have already been described in Chapter 4. This drug is widely used independently as well as an ingredient in various composite medicinal drugs. [Pg.127]

Barbiturates are used not only to treat human seizures. Pheno-barbital is the most common medication used to treat seizures in pets, like dogs. Generally if pets have more than one seizure every one or two months they may need a medicine for seizure prevention, although a veterinarian should decide if one is necessary. Phenobarbital may be used alone or in combination with potassium bromide, a very old seizure medicine for humans. Like people, some young pets may grow out of their seizures as they mature.19... [Pg.42]

Barbiturates are all derived from barbituric acid, first obtained from uric acid and synthesized in Germany by Dr. Adolf van Baeyer in 1864. Conrad and Guthzeit synthesized the first barbiturate, 5,5-diethylbarbituric acid (barbital) in 1882. In 1903, Emile Fischer and Baron Josef von Meiing introduced barbital into clinical medicine under the trade name Veronal . Phenobarbital, which has remained the model T of barbiturates, first appeared on the market in 1912 as Luminal . Unfortunately, intoxication with barbiturates is qualitatively similar to intoxication with alcohol and produced similar problems of abuse. [Pg.1041]

Phenobarbital has been reported as a contaminant in a Chinese patent medicine (133). [Pg.1612]

A 10-year-old boy developed respiratory depression and became comatose after taking the Chinese patent medicine Diankexing for 6 months. His urine phenobarbital concentration was 95 pg/ml (target range 20-40 pg/ml). The remedy was withdrawn and he was successfully treated with activated charcoal. [Pg.1612]

All prescription-only medicines may be supplied by emergency supply at the request of a practitioner, except controlled drugs in Schedules 1, 2 and 3 of the Misuse of Drugs Regulations (apart from phenobarbital or pheno-barbital sodium for the treatment of epilepsy). Please note that the emergency supply of phenobarbital or phenobarbital sodium for the treatment of a medical condition other than epilepsy would therefore be unlawful. [Pg.182]

The parent compound in this class is barbituric acid (2,4,6(l//,3y/,5//)-pyriniidinetrione). In contrast to its 5-substituted derivatives, it has no hypnotic activity. The first hypnotic barbiturate was 5,5-diethylbarbituric acid (barbital). 5-Ethyl-5-phenylbarbituric acid (phenobarbital) is a long-acting CNS depressant. A large number of 5-substituted barbituric acid derivatives has been prepared. Several of the active compounds have been or are used in medicine [Pg.223]
