SABRIL (vigabatrin) is a prescription medication used with other treatments in grownups and youngsters 2 years old and older with refractory facility partial seizures (CPS) that have actually not reacted well enough to a number of various other treatments and if the possible advantages surpass the risk of vision loss.

One of the most usual adverse effects of SABRIL in children 3 to 16 years is weight gain. With serious vision loss, you may just be able to see things directly in front of you (often called tunnel vision"). You go to risk for vision loss with any amount of SABRIL.

Tell your healthcare provider if you are expectant or intend to get expectant. If vision screening can not be done, your healthcare provider may proceed recommending SABRIL, but will certainly not be able to look for any type of vision loss. Your healthcare supplier might stop recommending SABRIL for you (or your youngster)if vision examinations are not done regularly.
