  • Allobarbital, also known as allobarbitone and branded as Cibalgine or Dial-Ciba (in combination with ethyl carbamate). It was used primarily as an anticonvulsant. Other uses for allobarbital included as an adjutant to boost the activity of analgesic drugs, and use in the treatment of insomnia and anxiety. This product is designed for qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Amobarbital Sodium (known as Amylobarbitone or Sodium amytal) it is a white crystalline powder with no odor and a slightly bitter taste and a drug that is a barbiturate derivative. Amobarbital has been used in a study to inhibit mitochondrial electron transport in the rat heart in an attempt to preserve mitochondrial function following reperfusion. This product is designed for qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Barbital (Barbitone) is a long-acting barbiturate that depresses most metabolic processes at high doses. It is used as a hypnotic and sedative and may induce dependence. Barbital is also used in veterinary practice for central nervous system depression. This product is designed for qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Butabarbital, or Butisol, is a fast onset barbiturate with short duration of action compared to other barbiturates. This makes butabarbital a useful drug for treating severe insomnia and pre-operative anxiety. Butabarbital is less commonly used in recent years, as more patients are typically prescribed benzodiazepines. Its short duration of action gives butabarbital a high abuse potential, comparable to [secobarbital]. This product is designed for qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Butalbital or 5-allyl-5-isobutylbarbituric acid, is a derivative of barbituric acid which the hydrogens at position 5 are substituted by an allyl group and an isobutyl group. It is a short-to-intermediate acting member of barbiturates that exhibit muscle-relaxing and anti-anxiety properties that produce central nervous system (CNS) depression that ranges from mild sedation to general anesthesia. This product is designed for use in qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Hexobarbital (CitopanEvipan, and Tobinal0 is a  barbiturate derivative having hypnotic and sedative effects, use as an agent for inducing anesthesia for surgery, as well as a rapid-acting, short-lasting hypnotic for general use, and has a relatively fast onset of effects and short duration of action. This product is designed for qualitative and quantitative protocols and can be used for forensic, toxicology, research, and other chemical/biochemical analytical applications.
  • Ketamine is a cyclohexanone derivative with analgesic and anesthetic properties. Ketamine is a parenterally administered, general anesthetic used largely for short term diagnostic and surgical procedures, but which has been limited in use because of its psychological side effects including vivid hallucinations, agitation and confusion.
  • Pentobarbital-D5 (also known as pentobarbitone) is a short acting barbiturate typically used as a sedative, a preanesthetic, and to control convulsions in emergencies. It can also be used for short-term treatment of insomnia but has been largely replaced by the benzodiazepine family of drugs. It is prescribed more frequently for sleep induction than for Sedation but, like similar agents, may lose its effectiveness by the second week of continued administration.
  • Phenobarbital-D5 binds to and activates the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A receptor, thereby mimicking the inhibitory actions of GABA in the brain. Phenobarbital is a barbiturate that is widely used as a sedative and an antiseizure medication. Phenobarbital appears as odorless white crystalline powder or colorless crystals. A saturated aqueous solution is acid to litmus (approximately pH 5). Slightly bitter taste. Phenobarbital has been linked to rare instances of idiosyncratic liver injury that can be severe and even fatal.
  • Thiopental is a barbiturate, the structure of which is that of 2-thiobarbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and sec-pentyl groups. It has a role as an anticonvulsant, a sedative, an environmental contaminant, a xenobiotic, a drug allergen and an intravenous anaesthetic. It is functionally related to a 2-thiobarbituric acid. It is a conjugate acid of a thiopental(1-).
