Description
|
Methyprylon is a sedative of the piperidinedione derivative family. This medicine was used for treating insomnia, but is now rarely used as it has been replaced by newer drugs with less side effects, such as benzodiazepines. Methyprylon was withdrawn from the US market in June 1965 and the Canadian market in September 1990. [Wikipedia] |
Indication |
For the treatment of insomnia. |
Pharmacology |
Methyprylon, a piperidinedione CNS depressant, is close to barbituric acid in structure, but different enough to be called a "non-barbiturate" sedative-hynotic. Methyprylon is used for insomnia and daytime tension. Methyprylon depresses the activity of muscle tissues, the heart, and the respiratory system. |
Toxicity |
Symptoms of overdose include excitation and convulsions. |
Affected Organisms |
• |
Humans and other mammals |
|
Biotransformation |
Hepatic. Methyprylon is almost completely metabolized. |
Half Life |
6-16 hours |
Protein Binding |
60% |
