CompositionSoval Syrup is used to manage complex partial seizures in epilepsy, either alone or together with other seizure medicines. It is also used to manage bipolar disorder by helping to prevent extreme mood swings.
It contains sodium valproate and belongs to a group of medicines called anti-epileptics. Take it as prescribed, using the measuring device provided. Continue taking it regularly even if you feel well, and do not stop it suddenly without medical advice, as this can trigger seizures or a return of mood symptoms.
Keeping a regular routine, avoiding alcohol, and getting adequate rest can help support seizure and mood control alongside this medicine.
This medicine can cause serious harm to an unborn baby, so tell your doctor immediately if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy, and ask about a pregnancy prevention plan if you are of childbearing age.
