摘要: Introduction Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), also known as Janz syndrome, is a common form of generalized presumed genetic origin representing up to 10% all cases. Despite adequate anti-seizure medication (ASM) treatment, seizures persist in one-third JME patients. Areas covered A literature search was conducted using Pubmed on the topics drug-resistant JME. Expert opinion About 30% patients are drug-resistant. Valproate (VPA) considered first-choice drug. In women childbearing potential, levetiracetam (LEV) should represent treatment. Alternative monotherapy or add-on therapy be subjects with resistant after exclusion pseudo-drug resistance. The choice ASM depends predominant seizure type. persistent bilateral tonic-clonic seizures, LEV lamotrigine firstly considered. difficult-to-treat clonazepam recommended. case absences, ethosuximide With appropriate selection and safeguards place, VPA remain available an option potential whose other treatments.
