Product Introduction
Lacotide Syrup is a medication used to help control and prevent epilepsy by reducing abnormal and excessive activity of nerve cells in the brain. This helps in managing seizures or fits effectively.

It can be taken with or without meals, but try to take it at the same time every day for best results. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Because missed doses may lead to serious complications, it’s a good idea to keep an extra supply on hand to avoid interruptions. Do not stop using the medicine suddenly without talking to your doctor, as this may increase the chances of seizures. Before starting the treatment, inform your doctor if you have any heart-related conditions.

Some people may experience side effects such as dizziness, headache, dry mouth, muscle cramps, blurred or double vision, nausea, or vomiting. These effects are usually temporary and tend to get better as your body adjusts to the medicine. Since weight gain may occur, maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise is advised.

Benefits
In epilepsy and seizures, Lacotide Syrup works by controlling overactive nerve impulses in the brain that cause seizures.

This medication is not habit-forming, but it must be taken regularly as prescribed. Skipping doses can increase the risk of seizures.
