While the barbiturates were found to be highly effective sleeping tablets, a significant problem was the very serious side-effect associated with their overdose – death.<\/p>\n

This was found to be especially true if the pills were taken with alcohol.<\/p>\n

Many famous people have died – some deliberately, some inadvertently – from an overdose of barbiturates. Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland and Jimmy Hendrix are a few.<\/p>\n

The status of the barbiturates as drugs of abuse was further sensationalised in such popular books<\/a> and films<\/a> as The Valley of the Dolls<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Known also as ‘Pink Ladies’, ‘Yellow Bullets’, ‘Peanuts’ and ‘Dolls’, it was only a matter of time until the Barbiturates fell out of favour with the medical profession and newer, safer sleeping tablets (the benzodiazepines) became available.<\/p>\n

Nembutal was withdrawn with little notice from the prescribing schedule in 1998, with Amytal following suit in 2003.<\/p>\n

Today, the only barbiturate commonly prescribed by doctors is the slow-acting Phenobarbital.<\/p>\n

Phenobarbital occupies a niche in medicine as an anti-convulsant, but it is a poor substitute to the specific barbiturate sleeping tablets in terms of providing a reliable, peaceful death.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Barbiturate Use in Veterinary Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n

The veterinary use of the barbiturates has persisted since the 1930s where they are used as anaesthesia during surgery and for animal euthanasia.<\/p>\n

A large dose delivered intravenously, quickly and peacefully ends an animal\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

This green-dyed form of the drug is marketed as Lethabarb or Valabarb and is known as ‘the green dream’.<\/p>\n

The pink-dyed form of the veterinary drug is marketed as Dolethal.<\/p>\n
