Brivera 50mg Tablet

Brivera 50mg Tablet contains Brivaracetam 50mg, an anti-epileptic medicine. Made by Helix Pharma Ltd, it is prescribed for epilepsy (partial-onset seizures). Pack size: 14 tablets.

Uses of Brivera 50mg Tablet

Brivera 50mg Tablet is used as an add-on treatment for partial-onset seizures, with or without spread to both sides of the brain, in adults and children. It is added when other epilepsy medicines on their own have not controlled seizures well enough. Taken regularly, it aims to reduce how often seizures happen. Treatment is started and adjusted by a specialist.

How Brivera 50mg Tablet works

Brivaracetam binds strongly to a protein called SV2A, found in the small sacs inside nerve endings that release chemical messengers. By acting on this protein it calms excessive electrical activity in the brain, making it harder for seizures to start and spread.

Possible side effects

Most side effects of Brivera 50mg Tablet are mild and tend to lessen with time. They may include:

• Drowsiness
• Dizziness
• Tiredness
• Nausea
• Irritability or mood changes

Contact your doctor straight away about low mood, aggression or thoughts of self-harm. Get urgent help for a severe rash, swelling of the face or difficulty breathing, or seizures that become more frequent or prolonged.

Precautions and warnings

• Do not stop it suddenly, as this can trigger more seizures; your doctor will reduce it gradually if needed.
• Avoid driving until your seizures are controlled and you know how the medicine affects you, and follow local driving rules for epilepsy.
• Alcohol can increase drowsiness and is best avoided.
• Tell your doctor about liver disease and other medicines, especially rifampicin, which can lower its levels.
• If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, talk to your doctor before making any change to your treatment.
