VALPIN CR 135/58 MG Tablet CR 10 contains sodium valproate/valproic acid (200 mg) which works on your body as follows:

• Increases Brain Concentrations of GABA: Sodium valproate increases the levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory neurotransmitter that helps calm down the excessive electrical nerve activity seen in epileptic seizures.

• Potentiates GABA Activity: By inhibiting GABA degradation and increasing its synthesis and turnover, sodium valproate enhances the inhibitory activity of GABA.

• Regulates Mood: For bipolar disorder management, sodium valproate may increase the activity of serotonin, a brain chemical known as a 'mood stabiliser'. Increased serotonin activity can help control mood swings associated with bipolar disorder.
