Aprobarbital (as known in the United States , or aprobarbitone (as known elsewhere), sold as Oramon , Somnifaine , and Allonal , is a barbiturate derivative invented in the 1920s by Ernst Preiswerk. It has sedative , hypnotic and anticonvulsant properties, and was used primarily for the treatment of insomnia .[ 1] Aprobarbital was never as widely used as more common barbiturate derivatives such as phenobarbital and is now rarely prescribed as it has been replaced by newer drugs with a better safety margin.
