Seizurone 200mg Tablet

Seizurone 200mg Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called anticonvulsants or anti-epileptics used to treat epilepsy (fits) and trigeminal neuralgia (pain in the face's nerves). Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which there is a sudden rush of electric impulses (electric activity) in the brain. As a result, the brain's electrical rhythms become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent episodes of seizures or fits. Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition which affects the trigeminal nerve that carries sensations from the face to the brain. 

Seizurone 200mg Tablet contains 'Carbamazepine' that reduces the electrical impulses and subsequent firing of the nerve impulses that cause fits. Thus, Seizurone 200mg Tablet decreases the excessive and abnormal nerve activity in the brain, thereby controlling seizures.

• A ketogenic diet (low in carbohydrates and high in fats) is recommended for children with epilepsy. This diet helps in utilizing fat instead of glucose for the generation of energy.

• Atkins diet (high fat and controlled carbohydrates) is recommended for adolescents and adults.

• Rest well, get plenty of sleep.

• Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption.

• Exercise, meditation and yoga can help lower the stress, decrease pain sensitivity and improves coping skills.

• Prepare your living area; small changes may reduce the risk of physical injury during a seizure.

• Install an alarm or emergency device to get assistance during a seizure attack.

• Regular monitoring of sodium levels while taking Seizurone 200mg Tablet is advised to prevent hyponatremia.

• Prolonged intake of Seizurone 200mg Tablet can cause severe skin reactions called Stevens Johnsons syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). So in case you have any skin blister or rash immediately contact a doctor.

Epilepsy/Seizures: Seizures, also known as fits or convulsions, is a single occurrence of abnormal electrical activity in the brain, whereas epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterised by recurrent seizures. The possible causes of epilepsy include traumatic brain injury, scarring on the brain after a brain injury, high fever, stroke, vascular diseases, lack of oxygen to the brain, brain tumours, and genetic disorders. Symptoms include mood changes, anxiousness, nausea, dizziness, weakness, headache, muscle jerking, spasms, loss of balance, teeth clenching, rapid blinking or eye movements, biting the tongue, confusion, and loss of consciousness.

Trigeminal neuralgia: It is a condition affecting the trigeminal nerve in the face that causes painful sensations similar to electric shock on one side of the face. Symptoms include mild to severe facial pain often triggered by speaking, chewing, or brushing the teeth.
