About Viganext Powder For Solution
Viganext Powder For Solution belongs to a group of medications called anticonvulsants. Vigabatrin is used alone or with other medicines to treat refractory complex partial seizures in adults and children two years of age and older and infantile spasms in children. Seizures are considered refractory when two or more AEDs (anti-epileptic drugs) have failed to control the seizures. Infantile spasms, sometimes called West syndrome, are a type of seizure that occurs in babies.
Viganext Powder For Solution contains Vigabatrin. It increases the amount of the chemical called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. Low levels of GABA cause some seizures. When Vigabatrin increases GABA, it reduces the likelihood of a seizure.
Take Viganext Powder For Solution as prescribed by your doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take Viganext Powder For Solution for as long as your doctor prescribes it. In some cases, Viganext Powder For Solution may cause side effects such as blue-yellow colour blindness, blurred vision, decreased vision or other vision changes, eye pain, increased seizures and loss of memory or problems with memory. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Before taking the Viganext Powder For Solution, let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications you are using. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. You should not breastfeed unless the doctor advises. To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Viganext Powder For Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed.

No, Viganext Powder For Solution should not be stopped even if you start feeling better. Abrupt stopping may cause continuous seizures, which can be difficult to control. To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Viganext Powder For Solution for as long as prescribed. Do not be reluctant to speak with your doctor if you feel any difficulty while taking Viganext Powder For Solution; your doctor will gradually reduce the dose to avoid precipitating seizures.
Brain cells must work (fire) at a specific rate to function normally. During a seizure, brain cells are forced to perform faster than usual. During a seizure, Vigabatrin causes chemical changes in the brain that slow down the firing of brain cells.
The most concerning adverse effect is the possibility of losing peripheral vision. This means that people may be unable to see clearly to the sides, as well as high up and low down. The risk of new and severe vision loss remains as long as Viganext Powder For Solution is used and possibly after the medicine is stopped. Periodic vision testing (suggested every three months) is essential for Viganext Powder For Solution patients but cannot reliably prevent visual impairment.
Viganext Powder For Solution may cause suicidal thoughts such as killing or harming yourself. People taking Viganext Powder For Solution should be closely monitored for suicidal thoughts or behaviour. Speak with your doctor immediately if you need to.
Pay close attention to any changes in mood, behaviour, thoughts, or feelings, especially if they are sudden.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Refractory complex partial seizures: Seizures are considered refractory when two or more AEDs (anti-epileptic drugs) have failed to control the seizures. Seizures are bursts of electrical activity in the brain that temporarily affect how it works. They can cause a wide range of symptoms.
Infantile spasms: Infantile spasms, also known as West syndrome, are a form of seizure that occurs in infants. Spasms appear as a sudden stiffening of muscles, with the baby's arms, legs, or head bending forward. Seizures occur in a chain of brief spasms lasting one to two seconds.
