Butisol Sodium (butabarbital) "I was prescribed this medication for treatment-resistant insomnia, but I've found that it actually works best for relieving anxiety and promoting general relaxation. I have social anxiety especially. I took one before a wedding, and it really helped me be able to interact with others (rather than sit in a corner alone). In terms of the insomnia, Butisol knocks me out a couple of hours earlier than other medications I've tried. Also, experiencing no hangover or side effects the day after is a huge bonus"

Butisol Sodium (butabarbital) "Butisol Sodium is the only medicine that can make me fall asleep when I’m suffering from a migraine I have had migraines since I was a child and this is the last line of defence after I’ve tried taking my Imitrex shot and taken Advil and have already started vomiting it’s much cheaper than the shorter acting but faster acting barbiturates ( Seconal, Nembutal) I am also left with no hangover. This med used properly is amazing"

"I was prescribed this drug for a tension headache which I happened to have during a doctors visit. While waiting at pharmacy (problems with written script which took longer), I was pressing on my temples for minor relief. After obtaining butalbital, I took prescribed dose asap. My home was 5 blocks from pharmacy and as I entered my driveway, I surprisingly noticed decreaced pain. My headache was gone after getting home!"
