Sodium Pentathol (generic name, thiopental sodium (C₁₁H₁₇N₂O₂SNa)) was a compound which was used as a type of "truth serum" on Earth during the mid-20th century Earth.

While he was stuck in 1947 Earth, the United States of America's Army Air Corps used Sodium Pentathol on Quark in an attempt to gain information about an anticipated attack from Mars. However, several injections of the drug did not produce results, although Quark's loud, high-pitched screams for mercy led Captain Wainwright to make physical threats instead.
