SABRIL (vigabatrin) is a prescription medication used with various other treatments in kids and adults 2 years of age and older with refractory complex partial seizures (CPS) who have not responded well enough to a number of other therapies and if the possible benefits outweigh the threat of vision loss.
One of the most typical adverse effects of SABRIL in youngsters 3 to 16 years is weight gain. With severe vision loss, you might only be able to see things straight before you (in some cases called one-track mind"). You go to threat for vision loss with any type of quantity of SABRIL.
Inform your healthcare provider if you are expecting or intend to get pregnant. If vision testing can not be done, your healthcare provider might continue recommending SABRIL, yet will certainly not have the ability to expect any vision loss. If vision examinations are refrained routinely, your doctor may quit prescribing SABRIL for you (or your child).
