What is Felbamate ?
Felbamate is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to treat refractory epilepsy and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, a severe form of childhood-onset epilepsy. It functions by inhibiting excitatory neurotransmission and enhancing inhibitory neurotransmission, which helps in stabilizing nerve activity in the brain. Due to risks of serious side effects such as aplastic anemia and liver failure, its use is generally reserved for patients who respond inadequately to other treatments.
