What schedule do pentobarbital, amobarbital, and secobarbital fall under if they are in combination or in suppository form?

  1. C2

  2. C3

  3. C4

  4. C5

The correct answer is: C3

Pentobarbital, amobarbital, and secobarbital are all controlled substances that have schedule II status when taken orally. However, if they are combined with other substances or in suppository form, they fall in the C3 category. This is because the combination makes them more dangerous and prone to abuse. C2 substances have the highest potential for abuse and are only used medically in very specific cases, while C4 and C5 have lower potential for abuse and are more commonly used in medical settings.
