Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I would like to advise you not to skip any dose of valparin (
sodium valproate). This is because, skipping a dose may lead to recurrence of seizures.
Valparin should be taken twice daily to be effective.
In addition, beer or any other alcoholic drink is not good for you, as they may aggravate seizures.
Regarding sleep, you may take
zolpidem or
clonazepam after consulting your
neurologist.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology)
