Primidone (Mysoline^®), an epileptic seizure medication that is available by prescription, is approved for treating grand mal and partial seizures. The medication works by decreasing the excitability of the brain cells, helping to prevent abnormal electrical activity from starting and keeping such activity from spreading to other parts of the brain. Primidone is available in the form of a tablet that is usually taken one to three times a day. However, primidone is not suitable for everyone. A few of the conditions you should let your healthcare provider know about before taking the medication include porphyria, anemia, or any allergies.
