Overview

Bromisoval (INN; commonly known as bromvalerylurea) is a hypnotic and sedative discovered by Knoll in 1907 and patented in 1909.[1] It is marketed over the counter in Asia under various trade names (such as Brovarin[2]), usually in combination with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Chronic use of bromisoval has been associated with bromine poisoning.[3][4][5][6]
