Potassium Bromide Compound Basics

• Potassium bromide (KBr) is available by prescription only.

• Potassium bromide is an antiepileptic drug used to control seizure activity in dogs and cats.

• Potassium bromide is primarily prescribed for...

• Potassium bromide acts at the cellular level to decrease seizure activity and excitability by replacing chloride throughout the body.
