| RIYADH J FAKHRULDEEN PhD. The Royal Society, Amman, Jordan.

Over the passage of time and the discovery of new anticonvulsants, KBr apparently became less popular due to the hepatotoxicity of bromide. Once in the brain, the bromide component becomes negatively charged ions and causes the brain cells to be also negatively charged. It is this negative state which seems to inhibit the excitability of neuron cells and helps to prevent the cells of the brain from firing in a random and haphazard manner | ||
