Prescription Required.Why?
Is the active ingredient in this medication.
Primidone is a medication used to treat seizures, specifically tonicclonic seizures and complex partial seizures.
It can also be used to prevent seizures in patients who have had a recent head injury.
Prolet 50mg Tab (Primidone) is a barbiturate that works by increasing the activity of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter in the brain that helps to inhibit nerve activity. This inhibition helps to control seizures.
Store primidone at room temperature, between 15-30 degrees Celsius (59-86 degrees Fahrenheit).
Protect from light and moisture.
Keep primidone out of reach of children and pets.
The dosage of primidone will vary depending on the patient's age, weight, and medical condition.
It is typically taken orally, usually 1-2 times per day.
Follow your doctor's instructions carefully and do not change your dosage without their approval.
Common side effects of primidone include drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, and unsteady gait.
More serious side effects are possible and include:
Skin rash
Yellowing of the skin or eyes
Difficulty breathing
Swelling of the face, lips, or tongue
Mental or emotional changes
