SABRIL (vigabatrin) is a prescription medicine utilized with other therapies in adults and youngsters 2 years of age and older with refractory complicated partial seizures (CPS) that have not responded well enough to a number of various other treatments and if the possible advantages surpass the risk of vision loss.
The most typical negative effects of SABRIL in children 3 to 16 years is weight gain. With severe vision loss, you might just be able to see things right in front of you (sometimes called one-track mind"). You are at risk for vision loss with any quantity of SABRIL.
If you are expecting or intend to obtain pregnant, tell your healthcare service provider. If vision testing can not be done, your healthcare provider might proceed recommending SABRIL, but will not have the ability to watch for any type of vision loss. Your health care service provider might stop prescribing SABRIL for you (or your youngster)if vision examinations are not done consistently.
