Glutethimide
A sedative-hypnotic medication that was formerly prescribed to treat insomnia by depressing the central nervous system, but has largely been withdrawn from clinical use due to its high potential for abuse, dependence, and dangerous overdose. It shares many of the risks associated with barbiturates and has been replaced by safer sleep medications. Illicitly, it has been abused in combination with codeine.
