Barbiturates were introduced in the early 1900s (for medical use) as sedatives, hypnotics, anesthetics, and anticonvulsants. Barbiturates are generally divided into four groups based on their duration of effect: ultra-short-acting (e.g., methohexital and thiopental), short-acting (e.g., pentobarbital and secobarbital), intermediate-acting (e.g., amobarbital and butabarbital), and long-acting (e.g., phenobarbital and primidone). Ultra-short-acting barbiturates produce anesthesia within one minute after intravenous use.
