3. Barbiturates act as central nervous system depressants producing a wide spectrum of effects, from mild sedation to total anesthesia. They are also effective as anxiolytics, as hypnotics, and as anticonvulsants. Barbiturates also have analgesic effects, however these effects are somewhat weak, preventing barbiturates from being used in surgery in the absence of other analgesics. They have both physical and psychological addiction potential and have now been replaced by benzodiazepines - for example, in the treatment of anxiety and insomnia – mainly because benzodiazepines have significantly less overdose potential
