Hi

I would strongly recommend to avoid using any such drugs especially after a brain injury since it can worsen your recovery.

This drug can also cause more problems with concentration, memory, or balance, increase your risk of seizures and increase your risk of having another brain injury.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
