Epilease Capsules 250mg - Pack of 60
250mg Epilease capsules are designed to help control seizures in dogs diagnosed with epilepsy. The capsules contain potassium bromide, an active ingredient that stabilises electrical activity in the brain and reduces seizure frequency. Epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes recurring seizures, which can vary in severity and duration.
Seizures occur when abnormal electrical impulses in the brain trigger involuntary movements, loss of consciousness, or behavioural changes. Epilease helps to regulate these electrical signals, reducing the likelihood of sudden seizures and providing long-term management of the condition.
Dogs with epilepsy require consistent medication to maintain stable brain function and prevent seizure episodes. Regular veterinary supervision and monitoring are essential to ensuring the effectiveness of treatment and adjusting dosage if necessary.
How 250mg Epilease Capsules Work
Epilease contains potassium bromide, which works by altering the way nerve cells in the brain transmit signals. Potassium bromide affects chloride channels in neurons, making them less excitable and reducing the risk of spontaneous electrical activity that leads to seizures. This stabilising effect helps to control epilepsy and prevent unpredictable episodes.
Potassium bromide is often used in cases where standard anti-seizure medications, such as phenobarbital, are not effective or cause side effects. It can be used as a primary treatment or in combination with other medications to improve seizure control.
As a long-term treatment, Epilease gradually builds up in the dog's system, requiring consistent daily administration. It may take several weeks before full effects are observed, and close monitoring is necessary to adjust dosage based on the dog’s response.
