Carisoprodol, also known as meprobamate, is a central nervous system depressant and muscle relaxant that is used to treat chronic pain and muscle spasms.
The chemical formula for carisoprodol is C11H15NO2SCH3.
It is a white or almost white, crystalline powder that is practically odorless and has a slightly bitter taste.
Carisoprodol is used as an intermediate in the production of other pharmaceuticals and chemicals.
One of the most common downstream products of carisoprodol is meprobamate, which is a muscle relaxant and anticonvulsant that is used to treat muscle spasms and anxiety.
Meprobamate is also sometimes used as a sleep aid.
Another downstream product of carisoprodol is the anti-epileptic drug (AED) phenobarbital.
Phenobarbital is a benzodiazepine that is used to treat seizures and convulsions.
It is also sometimes used as a sedative and to treat anxiety.
Another downstream product of carisoprodol is the anti-anxiety drug chlorodiazepoxide.
Chlorodiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that is used to treat anxiety and other nervous system disorders.
It is also sometimes used as a sedative.
Carisoprodol is also used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals, including the herbicide atrazine and the insecticide aldicarb.
Atrazine is a herbicide that is used to control weeds in crops.
It is one of the most commonly used herbicides in the United States.
Aldicarb is an insecticide that is used to control pests in crops and around homes.
The upstream products of carisoprodol include raw materials and intermediates that are used in the production of the drug.
These can include raw materials such as benzene, toluene, and hydrochloric acid, as well as intermediates such as phenol and acetaminophen.
These materials are used to produce carisoprodol through a series of chemical reactions.
