These two components work synergistically to manage seizures or fit by reducing abnormal and excessive activity in the brain's nerve cells. By stabilizing the electrical activity in the brain, they help control various types of seizures.
Common side effects include anorexia, nausea, and vomiting, which are minimized with enteric-coated tablets. Central nervous system effects include sedation, ataxia, and tremor, typically resolving with dose reduction. Occasionally, rash, alopecia, and increased appetite are observed.

Hepatic injury, acute pancreatitis, and hyperammonemia are also associated risks, particularly in young children with other medical conditions or multiple antiepileptic treatments.
It is also indicated for treating bipolar disorder and preventing migraines.
Sodium Valproate has anti-epileptic properties effective against various seizure types. Its mechanism is thought to involve increasing brain levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
