my only experience with barbiturates is taking generic Fioricet, which has a -small- amount of butalbital in the mix, to relive tension and get the pain level down. I have never had a major migraine problem, just relatively mild ones on occasion...and it worked well. :-)
i was curious, so I did a goodrx search. butalbital is $$, but Schedule III and available...
Seconal is back, Schedule II and priced sky high $$$$. Maybe Seconal is for the assisted suicides, where that's legal? might explain the ridiculous pricing.
i think meprobamate would probably be a better option...its $, but available, schedule IV. less toxic, effective muscle relaxer, more sedative than anything else, but then again...
the benzodiazepines are sedatives, too...and they can cause rage reactions, disinhibition, increases in aggression and straight up violence (not always, obviously...but sometimes...), and...
some benzodiazepine ODs can be fatal, such as temazepam. poly-drug ODs often involve benzodiazepines.
personally, i avoid all flavors Mother's Little Helpers. bad experiences with clonazepam tapers, amnesia from lorazepam...inter-dose anxiety, drug-induced depression, loss of interest in -life- , etc...
i think they're all just sedatives. placidyl, doriden, Quaaludes, etc...
downers, downers, downers. temporary fix if needed...at most, maybe a short(ish) term solution...
just my opinion, of course. :-)
