Apparently, the name "Nembutal" itself has been trademarked and is manufactured by a Danish-based pharmaceutical company called Lundbeck.
It appears that benzodiazepines are still available in injectable form under the name Nembutal, although I am not sure if capsules are still prescribed, as benzodiazepines have replaced the need for prescription drugs like pentobarbital. In its form, it can be used to rapidly render a patient unconscious during surgery, unless administered with Nembutal, while the rest of the anaesthetic is administered shortly thereafter. It is also apparently used in physician-assisted suicide to ensure a quick, safe, and relatively painless death.
As a tranquillizer, it is not without a history of widespread abuse. Because of its association with recreational use, Nembutal was given the nickname "Yellow Jacket" after the yellow capsules it came in for oral use.
The drug's infamous reputation is perhaps best known for sealing the fate of 1950s American actress Marilyn Monroe, her symbol of sex, with an overdose.
Barbiturates are precursors to the benzodiazepines such as Valium, Xanax and Klonopin that are well known today, and were once common household items, as Valium became known as a housewife's "helper" in the 1960s.
This is an example of a vintage advertisement for barbiturates in the United States.
Barbiturates appear to be more or less similar to benzos, both in terms of their physiological/psychoactive effects and the way they produce those effects in the brain.
Like benzos, barbiturates act as positive allosteric modulators at GABA A receptor, further enhancing the inhibitory effects of GABA by increasing the amount of chloride ions that pass through GABA channels into neurons.
The net negative charge in neurons, generated by the influx of chloride ions, causes the intoxicating, hypnotic effects of drugs such as barbiturates, benzos, and ethanol, and hyperpolarized neurons in the brain cause neurons to become depleted by stimuli within themselves.
Neighborhood that makes it difficult to be activated. One of the main differences between
barbiturates and benzos are the mechanism by which they increase the amount of chloride ions that pass through the channel opening of the GABA A receptor. With benzodiazepines.
Both increase her GABA potency and potentiate its inhibitory properties, but act as agonists at different sites, with benzo having its own distinct sites of effect. A more "direct" action of the chloride channel, as described above.
Both benzos and barbiturates are equally dangerous, but can also be dependent on the compound itself.
Both are very diverse, some compounds are very slow acting, others are very weak and benign with little potential for abuse, and others are very potent and fast acting and can be abused to cause addiction. There are also many compounds with high potential. Or overdose.
Drugs like Nembutal are way ahead of my time when I was born in 1992, so this drug and others like it can be compared to today's more modern and well-known benzodiazepines.
Barbiturates are more dangerous than benzodiazepines, according to tables such as the one below, which estimate the addictiveness and physical harm caused by many common psychotropic drugs. It seems so.
It would certainly be nice to try Nembutal and compare its innate ability to relieve anxiety to that of benzodiazepines, but in the end, pentobarbital is far more effective than using Xanax or Klonopin. Can't imagine.
It's hard enough to administer some benzos to calm anxiety without causing excessive sedation, so I can't imagine Nembutal being any easier to self-administer for the above purposes.
Maybe one day you'll be lucky enough to stumble upon the legendary "Yellowjacket" and be enveloped in their gentle magic.
But that is not very likely.
Hope this answer helps. Thank you for reading.
