Valance OD 500 Eazy Glide Tablet PR

Product Overview:
Valance OD 500 Eazy Glide Tablet PR is prescribed for managing epilepsy, seizures, bipolar disorder, mania, trigeminal neuralgia, and migraines. It helps regulate brain activity to control symptoms effectively. This medication should always be taken under medical guidance to ensure safety and proper use.

It can be used either alone or together with other treatments, with the dosage and frequency tailored by your healthcare provider to suit your needs. You may take the tablet with or without food, but it is best to take it consistently at the same time daily. Typically, it takes a few weeks for the medication to show its full effect. Regular use over the prescribed period is essential—even if you feel better—because skipping doses may increase the risk of seizures, and stopping suddenly can worsen your condition.

Common side effects include headaches, constipation, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, weight gain, rashes, back pain, and abdominal discomfort. These side effects are generally mild and often improve as your body adjusts. If a rash or skin redness develops, contact your doctor immediately. Long-term use may lead to decreased bone density, increasing fracture risk. There is also a rare possibility of suicidal thoughts or behaviors, so promptly inform your doctor if you experience mood changes or depression.

Before starting this medication, disclose any history of heart disease, liver or kidney problems, difficulty urinating, depression, or suicidal tendencies to your doctor. Certain medications can interact with Valance OD 500, so provide a full list of your current treatments. Pregnant women should consult their doctor before use, and alcohol should be avoided as it can heighten side effects and seizure risk. Regular blood tests may be necessary to monitor dosage and ensure the treatment is working properly.

Mechanism of Action:
This medication works by calming overactive nerve signals in the brain, increasing specific chemicals that help regulate brain activity. This action helps prevent seizures, stabilize mood in bipolar disorder, and reduce migraine frequency, improving overall symptom control and quality of life.

Precautions:

• Avoid alcohol as it may increase drowsiness and other side effects.

• Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy since the medication can pose risks to the unborn baby, although it may be prescribed in rare, critical cases.

• Use caution if breastfeeding; treatment may require temporarily stopping breastfeeding.

• The medication may impair your ability to drive or operate machinery.

• Safe for patients with kidney issues without dose changes, but should be avoided or used with caution in those with liver disease. Consult your doctor for guidance.

If a Dose is Missed:
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time for your next dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
