Hi Gio,
I'm sorry to hear that you are trying to use this medication to end your life. For this very reason, I have my doubts that a doctor would even be willing to write you a script for it.
Seconal (Secobarbital sodium) is a "prescription-only" medication, indicated for: Treatment of epilepsy, Temporary treatment of insomnia, & Used as a preoperative medication to produce anaesthesia and anxiolysis in short surgical, diagnostic, or therapeutic procedures which are minimally painful.
May I ask what type of illness you have that cannot be cured?
I'm so sorry for your situation.
Hint: vet clinics only in the country of Peru, in target specific cities, such as Cusco, not "secobarb", but as equally potent, liquid, Sodium Pentobarbital, the liquid version once produced in the USA back in the 1950's for 40 years in capsules as "Nembutal" capsules as strong as 100mg by Abbott Labs of North Chicago Ill USA. A few names from around the five years ago. (South America only) Nembutal is no longer made in the very familiar yellow capsules for about nearly 15 years now but is widely available in liquid vials in major hospitals, for IM or IV use stocked in large refrigerated walk in units of major hospitals with surgery centers. (USA).
Halatal
Penta-Hypnol
Also, La Paz, in Bolivia. Caution, there are risks for the gringo traveler in these lands, and, check with Dept of State advisory, if the countries are safe to travel in! If you are from the USA. Some knowledge of the Spanish language is a strong asset or a traveling partner for both safety and for, a interpreter, I might add. Do not think of transporting, this liquid only med back to USA, there will be consequences!!!
Another source is this: "The Peaceful Pill Book" by Dr. Philip Nitschke and by Dr. Fiona Stewart. by Exit International US ISBN # 978-0-9788788-4-9. Published in the year 2009. Mexico is too dangerous, and was once a source, but due to changing laws and risk of kidnapping and areas of Mexico it once was available, are just too high risk in the here and now!!! (Vet clinics only as liquid) for pets.
Another idea to consider is to move to the state of Oregon, and bring your medical records if one has a terminal illness (for USA citizens) for Seconal, made still, in the USA for a steep price, and doled out by very, very few USA Psychiatrists.
The state of Texas prison system was in the recent past a large buyer of Seconal for those on death row, and, the med Seconal, is often rarely on a pharmacy shelf, or in a USA chain or independent pharmacy safe or double locked security drawer.
The stigma from the over prescribing of once Eli Lilly & Son Seconal & Tuinal in the 1960's and early 1970's, still prevails, to curtail the overwhelming majority of ethical MD's in USA to prescribe, Seconal, or any fast acting barbituate in Canada, or even in the UK. The price has risen from one bottle of 100 capsules of former, Lilly Seconal NDC 00002-0640-02 from a 100 count bottle of 100mg Red Pulvules, from Average Wholesale Price from US 20.08 in the year 1994 to the year 2008 by
Marathon Labs to AWP of same amount for US $490.50 NDC # 42998-0679-01 source REDBOOK Pharmacy's Fundamental Reference, 114th year of publication, by Thomson Reuters, and that was for the 2010 calendar year, and my 1994 source was from PDR Generics, page 2483, published by Medical Economics, of Montvale New Jersey USA, the same firm who publishes another book called the PDR.
I used to get RX's for many of above, and more, but the very last RX or "Seconal" I have had my hands on the bright red 100mg embossed "F40" pulvule or the rainbow colored "Tuinal" with 100mg of Secobarbital and 100 mg of Amobarbital
Sodium was a 200 mg pulvule embossed "F66" both in the year 1976, yes, the bicentential year of now over, 41 years ago!!! "Assumed safer non barbs replaced the meds "short term" like Quaalude and Parest and Sopar and Doriden, only for those to get demonized and, later withdrawn including Abbott Placidyl and, later Restoril and, Dalmane, and Halcion were king of the hill until the kindergarden Ambien/Stilnox (Zolpidem Tartrate) replaced these meds as well, for those of us with insomnia, along with that off label prescribing of generic Trazodone, in the past 20 years, with Lunestra. Like comparing a USA Ford Pinto or Ford Escort, or Nissan Sentra, to, a Mercedes Benz 600 series or a BMW 750 series, car for ones bang for the buck. seriously, the overdose potential is very well documented with the barbituates especially with alcohol, even a small drink of alcohol, and ER visits were their demise. "Valley of the Dolls" was a late 1960's movie about the use and abuse of "red devils" "yellow jackets" and "Rainbows", and Blue angels/devils Amytal Sodium 200 mg blue pulvules by Eli Lilly embossed "F33".
Very effective for short term use, of two weeks or less, used responsibly, but, the recreational abusers, ruined it for everyone, just like for outstanding Parke Davis Carbital Kapseals, a white capsule, with a bright navy blue center, of pentobarbital
sodium and carbromal embossed PD 376 in the 1970's!!!
Re: David (# 1)
Typical of the backward, upside-down, inside-out attitudes of the smug and healthy toward euthanasia by choice. I notice you forgot to be "so sorry to hear" that he is terminally ill and in pain. Only sorry to hear he wants to end his life. RED FLAG RESPONSE.
