A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Encorate Chrono 300 Tablet. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.
Encorate Chrono 300 Tablet contains Sodium Valproate (200mg) + Valproic Acid (87mg). It belongs to the Valproate (antiepileptic/mood stabilizer) class of medicines.
Valproate increases inhibitory GABA neurotransmission and reduces abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Prolonged release helps maintain stable plasma concentrations for ongoing seizure and mood control.
Take as prescribed with food if needed. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew prolonged-release tablets. Do not stop abruptly; periodic lab monitoring (LFTs, CBC) may be needed.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
If you miss a dose of Encorate Chrono 300 Tablet CR, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
An overdose of this medicine can cause deep unconsciousness, slowed breathing and dangerous heart rhythm disturbance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Most side effects of Encorate Chrono are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
