A member asked:
What happens if you mix barbiturate with strongdrinks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depressants: Barbiturates are central nervous system suppressants like alcohol. The major difference is that they do not have many of the other systemic effects of alcohol on other parts of the body. Adding barbiturates to alcohol may produce a lethal suppression of respiration.
