Hello,

It is a medication which prevents seizure. In a head injury patient, when the chance of seizure is suspected, this medicine is prescribed. It has a lot of side effects
-Loss of coordination
-Nausea, headache
-Tremors, slurred speech
-Confusion, dizziness
-Sleep problems
Does skipping or stopping at once can cause a breakthrough seizure? Always consult a doctor before stopping it. Depending on the severity and site of injury, it may be stopped after some time or maybe continued for life.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. C H Ranjith Kumar
