摘要: The antiepileptic effect of γ-vinyl γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an irreversible GABA-transaminase inhibitor, was investigated in add-on, placebo-controlled, double-blind, cross-over, fixed-dose trial. Twenty-one patients suffering from difficult to control complex partial seizures participated; 18 completed the Serum levels concomitant drugs were kept constant throughout Three (17%) reduction seizure frequency and 8 (44%) reduced by at least 50%. Two developed a modereat 1 patient marked increase during treatment with GABA. Except for 2 patients, who had discontinue trial becuase adverse effects GABA, participants unable discriminate between regimens regard side effefts GABA seems be promosing new drug, first one present convincing evidence GABAergic mechanism action.
