Valparin 200 Alkalets Tablet contains sodium valproate (200 mg) and works on the body in the following ways:

• Increases GABA Levels: Sodium valproate increases the levels of a neurotransmitter called GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) in the brain. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that send signals between nerve cells. GABA has a calming effect on brain activity, which helps control seizures and stabilize mood.
• Reduces Overactivity: It reduces excessive firing and excitation of nerve cells in the brain, thereby helping to control seizures.
• Modulates Other Pathways: Sodium valproate also modulates other neurotransmitters and pathways involved in migraine pathogenesis, helping reduce the frequency and severity of migraines.
