LEVOCARNITINE+TOCOPHEROL+VALPROIC ACID belongs to the class of medications called 'anti-convulsants' used for Epilepsy/Seizures. Epilepsy is a central nervous system (neurological) disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behaviour, sensations, and sometimes loss of awareness.
LEVOCARNITINE+TOCOPHEROL+VALPROIC ACID composed of three medicines namely: Levocarnitine, Tocopherol(vitamin E), and Valproic acid. Levocarnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid derivative that helps your body turn fat into energy. Vitamin E is a type of antioxidant, a substance that protects cells from damage. Valproic acid is an antiepileptic medication. It controls seizures or fits by decreasing the abnormal and excessive activity of the nerve cells in the brain. Thus LEVOCARNITINE+TOCOPHEROL+VALPROIC ACID together improves the disease condition.
