Valprain contains Valproic Acid, it is used to help prevent seizures. If he was having them, they can be dangerous and it is normal for a medication to be given daily to help prevent them from happening, again.

In addition, all medications carry the risk of causing side effects.


Many people with Epilepsy or other seizure disorders take these types of medications for their entire lives. For your son's benefit, you should really follow your doctor's instructions as stopping the medication can be very dangerous.

All medications do carry the risk of side effects, for this one, they can include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and loss of appetite.

Hi, My Son 6months old had a seizure for lasting 20min and was taken to the ICU and got admitted, he was given Frisium and EEG done twice was normal. Got discharged. Again after 12 days he had another seizure for 5 mins in the morning in one side of the body (one hand & one leg) , by evening he had one more seizure on the opposite side . He was asked to take Frisium immediately after the episode. On the same day he was started with the new medicine - Tegretol 2.5ml - 0 - 5ml. But unfortunately again he had a seizure after 3 days. After those days seizure he started facing attacks on all alternates days , also on the interval days he had small jerks too.. We consulted the neurologist and she said we will stop gradually Tegretol and will start with Valparin - 1st 3 days 0-0-2.5ml, 2.5ml - 0- 2.5ml for another 3 days and finally will continue the medicine to 2.5ml - 0 - 5ml. will stop gradually Tegretol by after a week. Please let me know whether Valparin will effects to my baby, will this treat my baby soon? If so how many days it will take? Awaiting for the replies asap . Please pray for my baby boy.
