Description and Uses
Valproic acid and its salts are a new group of antiepileptic drugs that differs from the
known drugs both structurally and in terms of its mechanism of action. It is believed that
it acts on the metabolism of the GABA system. Valproic acid has been shown to elevate
the level of GABA in the brain by means of competitive inhibition of GABA transaminase
and the dehydrogenase of succinic semialdehyde.
This drug not only exhibits anticonvulsant action, but also betters the mental condition
of the patient.
Antiepileptic; increases levels of -aminobutyric acid(GABA) in the brain. Anticonvulsant that also has efficacy as a mood stabilizer in bipolar disorder
