Accepted Answer

Vigabatrin is an FDA-approved medication used for the treatment of infantile spasms in babies, one month to two years old. It may also be used along with other medications to treat epileptic seizures. When used correctly, it can help to decrease the overall number of seizures experienced by patients. This medication works by stopping the breakdown of a natural calming substance in the brain. Vigabatrin is available as an oral powder. Read and follow the medication guide provided with this drug before you start treatment. Mix the oral powder in a glass of water and drink immediately after. Do not mix in advance or store for future use. Always use a special measuring device to measure your dose, do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose. Your doctor will recommend an appropriate dose for you based on an assessment of your current medical condition, other drugs you are currently taking, and your response to treatment. Use Vigabatrin regularly to get the most benefit from it. Do not increase your dose or use this medication more often than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and the risk of side effects may be increased.
