Epilepsia, 36 Suppl 2, S66-S72 (1995-01-01)
After the first year of clinical experience, felbamate (FBM) appears to be a valuable antiepileptic drug (AED) for the treatment of intractable epilepsy. However, many patients experience side effects that may discourage continued usage. These may be decreased by using

Pediatric neurology, 42(6), 396-403 (2010-05-18)
The antiepileptic drug felbamate has demonstrated efficacy against a variety of seizure types in the pediatric population, particularly seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Postmarketing experience, however, revealed serious idiosyncratic adverse effects not observed during clinical trials, including aplastic anemia and

Journal of neurotrauma, 24(4), 732-744 (2007-04-19)
Increased levels of glutamate and aspartate have been detected after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) that correlate with neurological status. The NMDA receptor antagonist felbamate (FBM; 2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol dicarbamate) is an anti-epileptic drug that elicits neuroprotective effects in different experimental models of hypoxia-ischemia.

Polish journal of pharmacology, 56(3), 289-294 (2004-06-25)
Felbamate (2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol dicarbamate), a representative of novel antiepileptic drugs (AESs), proved to have broad-spectrum anticonvulsive activity. Particularly beneficial efficacy was found against partial seizures and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Therefore, felbamate started to be indicated not only as an adjunctive antiepileptic drug
P Glue et al.
Clinical pharmacokinetics, 33(3), 214-224 (1997-10-07)
This article provides an analysis of the degree of agreement between in vivo interaction studies performed in patients with epilepsy and healthy individuals, and in vitro studies which identified the cytochromes P450 (CYP) inhibited by felbamate and those involved in
