About Stable OD-250 Tablet

Stable OD-250 Tablet is used to treat epilepsy (seizures/fits). Epilepsy is a sudden rush of electricity in the brain. In epilepsy, the brain's electrical rhythms become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent seizures.

Stable OD-250 Tablet contains 'Divalproex sodium', which raises a brain chemical called GABA. This calms the brain, lowers abnormal activity, and helps stop seizures.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, back pain, increased appetite, constipation, diarrhoea, and headache. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
