Methyprylon, or Noludar, is a sedative/tranquilizer and hypnotic central nervous system depressant of the piperidinedione derivative chemical class, first developed in the 1940s by Hoffmann-La Roche. This medicine was used for treating insomnia, but is now rarely used as it has been replaced by newer drugs with fewer side effects, such as benzodiazepines.
