It's also used to keep certain forms of seizures under control. It works by lowering the brain's and nervous system's activity. Phenobarbital is a barbiturate-based nonselective central nervous system depressant that is primarily used as a sedative hypnotic and, in subhypnotic doses, as an anticonvulsant.
