Description
Nembutal Sodium is a short-acting barbiturate, chemically designated as sodium 5-ethyl-5-(1-methylbutyl) barbiturate. This is one of the reasons for being more suitable for suicide than longer-acting barbiturates such as phenobarbital.
Nembutal is a proven, reliable drug that brings about a peaceful death. Almost no failures are known, despite large statistics (for example, the Swiss euthanasia organisation Dignitas reported 840 exits with no single failure). There are however reports on seemingly slow or painful deaths with this medication in capital punishment, although this may be due to poor quality of the drug from compounding pharmacies given intravenously rather than orally.
Nembutal is supposedly very difficult to obtain, as its sole remaining human use in most of the world is in liquid form for use as a sedative and anesthetic in hospitals. In Europe it is even more scarce than in the US. Beuse of this, no brick-and-mortar or mail-order pharmacy sells Nembutal; any such site that claims to do so is likely fake. Also, veterinary this medication is a liquid and not in pill-form, which means that it has a shorter shelf life. On the other hand, Seconal (secobarbital), a short acting barbiturate that is as powerful as this medication if not more powerful, is still available in capsule form in the USA and probably the UK. However, it is very rarely, if ever, prescribed. this medicacation has a bitter taste that require the use of anti-emetics to prevent vomiting when given orally at high dosages.
Lethal Dose
There are a few views available on the lethal dose, all held by medical professionals. They are illustrated below.
Dr. Nitschke in his The Peaceful Pill Handbook states, “Administration is a matter of dissolving ~25 gm of the powder in ~50 ml of water and drinking. . . . . If the powder is analyzed to be pure, and if ingested in the recommended amounts, Chinese Nembutal powder will (not might) lead to a reliable and peaceful death. . . . . the lethal dose . If the substance is pure, a purchase of 25 gm of 95% pure soldium pentobarbital is more than enough for two adults.”
In The Netherlands, doctors who offer to help with hastening death, provide a drink with 9 grams of pentobarbital or secobarbital.
The research committee of Dr. Admiraal, belonging to a Dutch euthanasia group, deemed that nobody has ever woken up after ingestion of 6 grams of a barbiturate if not tolerant to the drug, provided no vomiting occurred.
it is suggested that 5 grams are the lethal dose of secobarbital. Dr. Admiraal said that 5 grams can not be considered as sufficient to be reliably lethal, but that 10 grams would definitely be the sufficient amount.
There are reports that Dignitas uses a liquid solution with 15 grams of this medication, probably as crushed tablets, dissolved in ~50 ml tap water.
Nembutal Sodium Solution and Powder
The most easily obtainable form today is vials of Nembutal Sodium Solution (pentobarbital sodium injection), a sterile solution for intravenous or intramuscular injection, typically used for animal anaesthesia or euthanasia. Each mL contains pentobarbital sodium 50 mg or 100 mg, in a vehicle of approximately propylene glycol, 40%, alcohol, 10% and water for injection, to volume. The pH is adjusted to approximately 9.5 with hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide. The containers come in a clear vial typical for sterile solutions, and should have an untouched protective metal cap if unopened, and be labelled clearly with due date. Dignitas also use some sort of solution, albeit with a higher concentration. The solution may be taken intravenously, for very quick effect as in capital punishment, or orally, see below.
Nembutal has also been reported to be available on the black market, particularly from China, in powder form. The purity of this powder is debated, see The Peaceful Pill Handbook. In Australia, a group of seniors have reportedly synthesised Nembutal on their own, using layman knowledge only, details of which can be found on YouTube.
