Zonisep capsule is used to treat seizures in epilepsy. It can be taken alone or in combination with other medications by both adults and children. It works by preventing seizures through the suppression of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. It should be taken at the same time each day, with or without food, as determined by your doctor. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage, even if you are feeling well. Stopping or missing doses could worsen your seizures.
