Barbiturates include sedatives like methaqualone, ambient and anti-psychotics which may be prescribed to help overcome ailments like insomnia, anxiety disorders and seizure disorders. The effects that these drugs can have last for up to fifteen hours after its consumption. This particular class of drugs is called by several names such as red devils, yellow jackets and barbs. They are usually taken orally by means of a pill or capsule. It can also be injected.

Barbiturates can have an adverse effect on the individual’s life. Not only the individual, but even the lives of his or her near and dear ones are changed for ever. Some of the side effects that can occur as a result of consuming barbiturates are clumsiness, dizziness and light headedness.

Why People Become Addicted

One of the reasons why people get hooked to barbiturates is because this class of drugs can be consumed to counter the ill effects of other drugs like heroin, methamphetamine and cocaine. There has been a significant rise in the consumption of such drugs over the last few years. As a result, the use of barbiturates has also increased proportionally.

A person who consumes barbiturates may display the same motions as some one who has had a few drinks: uninhibited and relaxed. In higher doses, however, they may look like they are drunk.

Barbiturates belong to the category of medicines called as the central nervous system depressants (CNS). These medicines act on the central nervous system and the brain of the human body to produce either beneficial or disastrous effects. It all depends on the condition of the patient and the amount that is taken.

If you consume barbiturates regularly, you may be addicted and  you need help to stop. Consider some of these facts:

  1. High consumption level of barbiturates can lead to a coma or even death.
  2. A combination of barbiturates and alcohol can be fatal to the users. The effects will be magnified as both these substances are downers.
  3. A shocking 30% (approximate) of all drug related deaths is due to the consumption of barbiturates.
  4. It can result in respiratory arrest.
