Zonegran (active ingredient: zonisamide) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Epilepsy: Zonegran is used as adjunctive therapy (in combination with other antiepileptic drugs) for the treatment of partial seizures in adults and children aged 6 years and older with epilepsy.

Zonegran belongs to a class of drugs known as anticonvulsants or antiepileptic drugs, which work by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain to prevent seizures.

Zonegran should be taken exactly as prescribed by a healthcare provider. It can be taken with or without food, but should be swallowed whole and not chewed, crushed, or broken. Patients should not stop taking Zonegran or adjust the dosage without first consulting with their doctor.

To ensure the effectiveness of Zonegran, it should be taken regularly and maintained at a stable level in the body. A dosing schedule should be created and followed to prevent missed doses. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and avoid altering your Zonegran dosage or abruptly stopping the medication, as doing so could result in worsening your condition.

The recommended dosage of Zonegran can vary based on a variety of factors, including age, weight, and medical history. However, the initial dose of Zonegran is typically 100 mg per day, with the option to increase to 200 mg per day after two weeks. The dosage may be further increased to 300 or 400 mg per day to achieve the desired therapeutic effect but should not exceed 600 mg/day. Consult with a healthcare professional before starting or adjusting the dosage of Zonegran.
