WHAT VOTUBIA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Votubia dispersible tablets contain an active substance called
everolimus. It is used to treat children
aged 2 years and above and adults with partial seizures with or
without secondary generalisation
(epilepsy) associated with a genetic disorder called tuberous
sclerosis complex (TSC) and which are
not controlled by other antiepileptic medicines. Partial seizures
start by only affecting one side of the
brain but can spread and extend to larger areas on both sides of the
brain (called a “secondary
generalisation”). Votubia dispersible tablets are given together
with other medicines for epilepsy.
Votubia is also an anti-tumour medicine which can block certain cells
in the body from growing. It
may reduce the size of brain tumours called subependymal giant cell
astrocytomas (SEGA) which are
also caused by TSC.
Votubia dispersible tablets are used to treat SEGA associated with TSC
in adults and children for
whom surgery is not appropriate.
