Ethosuximide and phenytoin dose-dependently attenuate acute nonconvulsive seizures after traumatic brain injury in rats.

J. Neurotrauma 30(23) , 1973-82, (2013)

Acute seizures frequently occur following severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and have been associated with poor patient prognosis. Silent or nonconvulsive seizures (NCS) manifest in the absence of mo...

How did phenobarbital's chemical structure affect the development of subsequent antiepileptic drugs (AEDs)?

Epilepsia 53 Suppl 8 , 3-11, (2012)

Phenobarbital has been in clinical use as an antiepileptic drug (AED) since 1912. The initial clinical success of phenobarbital and other barbiturates affected the design of subsequent AEDs (e.g., phe...
