SABRIL (vigabatrin) is a prescription medicine made use of with various other treatments in grownups and kids 2 years of age and older with refractory complex partial seizures (CPS) that have not responded all right to several other treatments and if the possible benefits exceed the threat of vision loss.
The most common side effect of SABRIL in children 3 to 16 years is weight gain. With extreme vision loss, you may just be able to see things right before you (often called tunnel vision"). You are at risk for vision loss with any type of amount of SABRIL.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are expecting or mean to get expecting. If vision screening can not be done, your healthcare provider may continue prescribing SABRIL, yet will certainly not be able to expect any kind of vision loss. If vision tests are refrained from doing on a regular basis, your healthcare provider might stop suggesting SABRIL for you (or your kid).
