Product introduction
Zapiz 0.25 Tablet may be taken with or without
food. However, take it at the same time each day
as this helps to maintain a consistent level of
medicine in the body. Take this medicine in the
dose and duration as advised by your doctor as it
has a high potential of habit-forming. If you have
missed a dose, take it as soon as you remember it
and finish the full course of treatment even if you
feel better. You should not stop this medicine
suddenly without talking to your doctor as it may
increase the seizure frequency and can cause
nausea, anxiety, flu-like symptoms, and muscle
pain.

Some common side effects of this medicine


include fatigue, depression and impaired
coordination. It may also cause dizziness and
sleepiness, so do not drive or do anything that
requires mental focus until you know how this
medicine affects you. It is important to inform your
doctor if you develop any unusual changes in
mood or depression as this medicine may cause
suicidal thoughts.

Benefits of Zapiz Tablet


Treatment of Anxiety disorder
Zapiz 0.25 Tablet stops your brain from releasing
the chemicals that make you feel anxious so it can
reduce the symptoms of excessive anxiety and
worry. It can also reduce feelings of restlessness,
tiredness, difficulty concentrating, feeling irritable
and sleep problems that often come with Anxiety
Disorder. It will therefore help you go about your
daily activities more easily and be more
productive. Keep taking this medicine even if you
feel well. Stopping suddenly can cause serious
problems.
Treatment of Epilepsy/Seizures
Zapiz 0.25 Tablet slows down electrical signals in
the brain which cause seizures (fits). It can also
help reduce symptoms such as confusion,
uncontrollable jerking movements, loss of
awareness, and fear or anxiety. The medicine can
allow you to do some activities that you would
otherwise be forbidden or scared to do (such as
swimming and driving). It can take a few weeks for
this medicine to work (because the dose has to be
increased slowly) and during this time you may still
have seizures. Do not stop using this medicine even
if you feel well, until your doctor advises you to.
Missing doses may trigger a seizure.
