About Soval Syrup

Soval Syrup belongs to the group of medicines called anticonvulsants or anti-epileptics used to treat epilepsy/seizures/fits and bipolar disorder. Epilepsy is a sudden rush of electricity in the brain. In epilepsy, the brain's electrical rhythms become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent seizures, sometimes leading to an unconscious state. 

Soval Syrup contains 'Sodium valproate', which decreases the brain's excessive and abnormal nerve activity. Thus, it helps in controlling seizures. Soval Syrup increases the amount of a chemical substance called GABA; this helps block nerve transmission across the brain and provides a calming effect. Thus, it helps treat bipolar disorder. 

Use Soval Syrup as prescribed by your doctor. Sometimes, it may cause certain side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, tremors, tiredness, sleepiness, headache, weight gain, and hair loss. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately.

Before using Soval Syrup , inform your doctor about your children's medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications used. To treat your condition effectually, continue using Soval Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Soval Syrup should be gradually withdrawn, so please do not stop using Soval Syrup without consulting your doctor.

Special Advise

Maintain all scheduled follow-up appointments with your healthcare practitioner.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • A ketogenic diet (low in carbohydrates and high in fats) is recommended for children with epilepsy. This diet helps utilise fat instead of glucose for energy generation.
  • Have a seizure response plan, and help those around you know what to do.
  • Prepare your children's living area; small changes may reduce the risk of physical injury during a seizure.
  • Understand what triggers seizures are and try reducing or avoiding them.
  • Install an alarm or emergency device to get assistance during a seizure attack.
  • Let your child rest well and sleep well.
