How VALPORATE CHRONO 500 TABLET Works
VALPORATE CHRONO 500 TABLET helps in managing epilepsy, where sodium valproate and valproic acid effectively increases the GABA (a neurotransmitter/chemical messenger) concentration in the central nervous system by reducing its degradation. It also blocks certain ion channels which reduce high-frequency neuronal activity in the brain, thereby reliving seizure activity.
