Fighting seizures takes a team. • Here are some things your team might want to know so they can better support you: • Epilepsy is a condition of the brain that causes a person to have seizures • Seizures are caused by a sudden surge of electrical activity in the brain and affect how you feel, move, act, or think for a brief period of time • When talking with your family and friends about how epilepsy and seizures affect you: • - Be specific about how they affect you • - Let them know your seizures can be triggered by different things • - Pay close attention to what’s happening to your body • Epilepsy medicine is used to treat different types of seizures. XCOPRI® (cenobamate tablets) CV is a prescription medicine used to treat partialonset seizures in adults 18 years of age or older. • IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for XCOPRI® (cenobamate tablets) CV DO NOT TAKE XCOPRI IF YOU: • Are allergic to cenobamate or any of the other ingredients in XCOPRI.
