Abstract:
Vigabatrin has been studied in adult drug-resistant epilepsy since 1982 in single-blind and double-blind studies followed by long-term, open evaluations. These studies have provided evidence that vigabatrin is a potent and well-tolerated antiepileptic drug and support its potential value in pediatric epilepsy. The lack of any evidence of human neurotoxicity in these patients is also reassuring regarding its use in children.
