A member asked:
1998 what prescription sleeping pills would have contained barbiuates or phenbarbital or still do it gave my son 2 seizures in early morning sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Barbiturates: This article lists the common drugs today that contain barbiturates: http://drugspedia.Net/prep/26932.Html. Nembutal is one of the most commonly prescribed today. If you or your doctor think the barbiturate was responsible for the seizures, the obvious solution is to switch to a non-barbiturate formulation, such as dalmane (flurazepam).
