Your doctor may prescribe Valpro Injection 5 ml to help manage the following conditions:

• Epilepsy and various seizure types: It is used to control generalised, partial, or other complex seizures when oral medication is temporarily not possible.
• Prevention of seizures after surgery or trauma: It helps prevent brain seizure activity following brain surgery or head injuries.
   

When used as directed as part of your treatment plan, Valpro Injection 5 ml may provide the following benefits:

• Helps control seizures: Helps reduce or prevent seizures in people with epilepsy and other seizure disorders.
• Supports continuous seizure management: Helps maintain seizure control when oral treatment is temporarily not possible.
• May reduce the risk of seizure-related complications: Effective seizure control may help lower the risk of injury and other complications associated with seizures.
• Supports brain stability during acute illness: Helps maintain stable brain activity in people requiring intravenous treatment for seizure control.
• Supports continuity of care: Allows essential anti-seizure treatment to continue until you can safely switch back to oral medicine, if appropriate.

• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
• Valpro Injection 5 ml will be administered by the doctor or healthcare professional.
• Do not self-administer.

• Maintain a consistent sleep schedule: Lack of sleep is a well-known trigger for seizures, so aim for 7 to 8 hours of restful sleep every night.
• Stay well-hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as dehydration can stress your nervous system.
• Avoid alcohol completely: Alcohol can interfere with how this medicine works in your brain and significantly increase your risk of severe drowsiness and seizures.
• Eat regular meals: Keeping your blood sugar stable by not skipping meals can help reduce the likelihood of seizure triggers.
• Manage stress: Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or gentle yoga, as high stress levels can lower your seizure threshold.

• Inspect the vial before use: Always check the injection liquid before it is given. Do not use it if you see particles, cloudiness, or any discolouration.
• Monitor your liver function: Your doctor will need to perform regular blood tests to check your liver health, especially during the first six months of treatment.
• Use effective birth control: This medicine can cause severe birth defects. If you are a female of childbearing age, discuss highly effective birth control options with your doctor.
• Do not stop treatment suddenly: Stopping this medicine abruptly can cause your seizures to return or become more severe. Always consult your doctor before making any changes.
• Avoid driving or operating machinery: This medicine can make you feel dizzy or sleepy. Do not perform tasks that require focus until you know how it affects you.
• Pregnancy and contraception: If you can become pregnant, use effective contraception while receiving this medicine. Your doctor should review your treatment and contraception at least once a year. Consult your doctor right away if you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant. Do not stop this medicine without medical advice.
