VALPOTREAT CR 200 contains Sodium Valproate CR 200 mg, a controlled-release formulation designed to manage various types of seizures in patients with epilepsy. Sodium Valproate is an antiepileptic drug (AED) that helps stabilize electrical activity in the brain, thereby reducing the frequency and severity of seizures. It is also used in the treatment of bipolar disorder and to prevent migraine headaches.

Key Benefits:

• Seizure Control: Effective in managing and reducing the frequency of different types of seizures in epilepsy.
• Mood Stabilization: Helps in the management of bipolar disorder by stabilizing mood swings.
• Migraine Prevention: Reduces the occurrence and severity of migraine headaches.
• Controlled Release: Provides a steady release of medication over time for consistent therapeutic effects.

How Does It Work?

Sodium Valproate works by increasing the levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. GABA is a neurotransmitter that helps calm nerve activity. By enhancing GABA levels, Sodium Valproate stabilizes electrical activity in the brain, preventing the abnormal brain signals that cause seizures. This mechanism also contributes to its mood-stabilizing effects in bipolar disorder and its efficacy in preventing migraines.

1. Dosage: Follow your healthcare provider's prescription. The dosage is tailored to the patient's medical condition and response to treatment.
2. Administration: Take VALPOTREAT CR 200 orally, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush or chew to maintain its controlled-release properties.
