BIA 2-093 [(S)-(-)-10-acetoxy-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenz/b,f/azepine-5-carboxamide] is endowed with an anticonvulsant potency similar to that of carbamazepine (CBZ), but produces less cognitive and motor impairment. This study evaluated whether voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are a primary locus for the action of BIA 2-093.

(S)-(-)-10-acetoxy-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenz/b,f/azepine-5-carboxamide (BIA 2-093) is endowed with high anticonvulsant activity and shares with carbamazepine (CBZ) and oxcarbazepine (OXC) the capability to inhibit voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSC). The present study was aimed to compare the effects of BIA 2-093, CBZ and OXC

The antiepileptic sodium channel blocker, carbamazepine, has long been known to be able to attenuate cAMP signals. This could be of clinical importance since cAMP signaling has been shown to be involved in epileptogenesis and seizures. However, no information on
