About Valproic Acid
Valproic Acid is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to treat epilepsy and manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder. It is effective in controlling seizures by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain and is also utilized to prevent migraine headaches. Valproic Acid enhances the concentration of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that inhibits nerve transmission, contributing to its calming effects. In summary, it helps manage seizures and mood disorders effectively.
How It Works
Valproic Acid increases GABA levels in the brain by inhibiting GABA transaminase, thereby reducing neuronal excitability and stabilizing electrical activity.
All Active Ingredients
