About Perampa Suspension 100 ml

Perampa Suspension 100 ml belongs to a group of medicines called anticonvulsants or anti-epileptics used to treat epilepsy. Epilepsy is a sudden rush of electricity in the brain. In epilepsy, the brain's electrical rhythms become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent seizures, sometimes leading unconscious state. 

Perampa Suspension 100 ml contains 'Perampanel'. It prevents seizures or epilepsy by blocking a receptor in the brain known as the glutamate receptor, thereby suppressing the brain's abnormal and excessive activity of the nerve cells.

In some cases, Perampa Suspension 100 ml may cause common side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, increased or decreased appetite, weight gain, fatigue, and nausea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Perampa Suspension 100 ml is not recommended during pregnancy and in children below four years. Consult your doctor if you are breastfeeding. Perampa Suspension 100 ml may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Perampa Suspension 100 ml as it could lead to increased dizziness and drowsiness. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience suicidal tendencies. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.
