Drug Function and Efficacy
This product is a broad-spectrum anti-epileptic drug. It may be almost completely degraded into valproic acid by the action of intestinal microorganisms before entering the human circulation, and appears in the blood in the form of valproic acid. Experiments have confirmed that this product can increase the synthesis of γ-aminobutyric acid (gamma-ABA) and reduce the degradation of gamma-ABA, thereby increasing the concentration of inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-ABA, reducing the excitation of neurons and inhibiting seizures.
