About Brivarise 50 mg Injection 5 ml
Brivarise 50 mg Injection 5 ml belongs to a group of medications called 'anti-convulsants'. It is used for treating partial-onset seizures (seizures involving only one part of the brain) in people with epilepsy (fits) in patients one month of age and older. Partial-onset seizures are characterized by abnormal electrical activity in only one brain hemisphere. Common symptoms are involuntary muscle contractions, followed by relaxation on one side of the body, uncontrolled head or eye movements, rapid heart rate, and a tingling sensation on the skin.
Brivarise 50 mg Injection 5 ml contains '‘Brivaracetam' that reduces the electrical impulses and subsequent firing of the nerve impulses that cause fits. Thus, Brivarise 50 mg Injection 5 ml decreases the brain's excessive and abnormal nerve activity, thereby controlling seizures.
