Barbiturate Reference Materials

Barbiturates are a class of central nervous system depressants, commonly prescribed in the past to treat conditions such as epilepsy and insomnia, or to manage withdrawal symptoms. They are less frequently prescribed today, due to their potential for abuse, as well as safer alternatives such as benzodiazepines and non-barbiturate sedatives being available.

 

Barbiturate misuse or overdose can be life-threatening, as such drugs operate in a narrow therapeutic window - meaning there is a fine line between therapeutic and lethal doses. Therefore, their use is closely monitored by healthcare and forensic professionals.

 

Reference materials play a crucial role in ensuring that the correct treatment or legal steps are followed by correctly identifying dosage, which barbiturate has been consumed, and the timeframe in which it was taken.

 

Our range of barbiturate reference materials below includes key compounds commonly tested for, such as phenobarbital, secobarbital and amobarbital - all of which are accompanied by a comprehensive certificate of analysis to support your analytical requirements.
