Talbutale, also called 5-allyl-5-sec-butylbarbituric acid, is a barbiturate with a short to intermediate duration of action. Talbutale is a schedule III drug in the U.S.
Talbutale is a short to intermediate-acting barbiturate that is a nonselective central nervous system (CNS) depressant. As with other barbiturates, talbutal is capable of producing all levels of CNS mood alteration from excitation to mild sedation, hypnosis, and deep coma. Barbiturates may also induce anesthesia at sufficiently high therapeutic doses.

Uses
For use as a sedative and hypnotic.
How Talbutale works
Talbutale binds to GABAA receptors at a distinct binding site associated with a Cl- ionopore of the receptor. Upon binding, talbutal increases the duration of time for which the Cl- ionopore is open, leading to prolonged inhibitory effect of GABA at the postsynaptic thalamic neuron.
Toxicity
Acute barbiturate poisoning is associated with symptoms such as drowsiness, confusion, coma, respiratory depression, hypotension, and shock.
