Hexobarbital is a barbiturate derivative with sedative and hypnotic properties, formerly used as a short-acting anesthetic and in sleep disorders. Its clinical use has been largely discontinued due to safety concerns and the development of safer alternatives. It is not a currently approved or widely used medication.
