> hey chemist, i was on luminal, mmmm about 7 months ago, it was fairly strong with me, but it really didnt mix good, i just felt tired, then i would start feeling just "queezy" like my anxiety is trying to break throught the threshold, felt sort of like a see saw, feel a little calm but uneasy and started too feel anxiety again, then it would go calm again. See what im saying.

> Wait i got it mixed up, is phenobarbital more potent than amobarbital? sorry for any commotion.
hello there, chemist here...the therapeutic serum concentrations of amobarbital are about 5 times lower than those of phenobarbital. this does not reflect potency, but one can interpret within reason this information to indicate that amobarbital is a ``stronger'' barbituic acid derivative than phenobarbital. as for your other post, it sounds as if you have a particular adverse - or more appropropriately, paradoxical - reaction to phenobarbital. i should expect the same for amobarbital, but one never knows....all the best, chemist
