Usage

General Description

2-(benzylsulfanyl)-5-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one, also known as zonisamide, is a medication that is commonly used in the treatment of epilepsy and certain types of seizures. It works by slowing down the electrical activity in the brain, helping to prevent seizures from occurring. Zonisamide is a sulfonamide medication and is believed to have anticonvulsant and neuroprotective properties. It is specifically used as an adjunct treatment for partial seizures in adults and children, as well as for the management of certain types of epilepsy. Zonisamide is available in the form of capsules and should be taken orally as directed by a healthcare professional. It is important to be aware of potential side effects and drug interactions associated with zonisamide and to use it only under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
