It is closely related if not exactly a barbiturate and is C-IV. It was discontinued in the UK around 2002 and Canada as well I think. Walgreens doesnt show it but CVS still has it listed. There may be an orphan status left for it still but I doubt it will be around much longer. I wouldn't doubt that the vast majority of people can stop barbiturate drugs on their own but they pose a greater danger.
Still I must say that Soma, carisoprodol, which is metabolized to meprobamate (Miltown) in the body, is very tempting as a back relief... [there is a certain country south of here that sells it but I wont go into it for improper posting...]
