Take control of your epilepsy and seizures. Seizure management has never been easier.
TAKE CONTROL TODAYThe best amount is the amount that completely controls seizures without causing troublesome side effects. It depends on many factors, which are different for every individual. Follow the doctor's directions. Call if you have any questions.
An uncommon but serious side effect of phenobarbital is a possibility of becoming addicted to the medicine. Therefore, it is important to take only the amount that the doctor prescribes.
No one should stop taking phenobarbital or change the amount they take without talking to the doctor first. Stopping any seizure medicine all at once can cause seizures that may be life-threatening. The risk of withdrawal symptoms with phenobarbital makes it especially important to be careful in stopping this medicine.
