Embutramide (INN, USAN, BAN; brand name Embutane) is a potent sedative drug that is structurally related to GHB.

Along with strong sedative effects, embutramide also produces respiratory depression and ventricular arrhythmia.

[citation needed] Embutramide is formulated as a combination product under the brand name Tributame, which also contains chloroquine and lidocaine.

[10] Embutramide is considered an analog of gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) due to its structural similarity to this naturally occurring neurotransmitter.

The analog status of embutramide is significant in terms of its regulation and controlled use to prevent any potential misuse or abuse.
