Information
Potassium Bromide (CAS Nr.: 7758-02-3) is a safe and effective anticonvulsant in dogs. For many years, both potassium bromide (KBr) and phenobarbital (PB) have been used in human and veterinary medicine as anti-seizure medications. In January 2021, FDA conditionally approved KBroVet-CA1 (potassium bromide chewable tablets) to control seizures in dogs with idiopathic epilepsy. The drug is a halide salt, and when the salt passes through neuronal channels, it hyperpolarizes neuronal membranes and stabilizes the neurons. This stabilization reduces the likelihood of a seizure.
