Serum protein binding of desmethyl-methsuximide (DM-MSM) in serum from 23 patients on polytherapy were determined using ultrafiltration and high-performance liquid chromatography. Desmethyl-methsuximide, The active metabolite of methsuximide (MSM), was found to have a moderate protein binding ranging between 45% and

Methsuximide was added to the therapeutic regimens of 25 children with intractable epilepsy. In 15 patients the drug was well tolerated and resulted in a 50% or greater reduction in seizure frequency. No serious or irreversible adverse effects were seen.

Clinical chemistry, 28(1), 100-104 (1982-01-01)
We describe an improved "high-pressure" liquid-chromatographic assay for simultaneous determination in serum of the five major antiepileptic drugs (ethosuximide, primidone, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and carbamazepine) and N-desmethylmethsuximide (the compound that must be quantitated for therapeutic drug monitoring of the antiepileptic drug
D S Cardella et al.
Clinical biochemistry, 21(6), 329-331 (1988-12-01)
A method for the determination of the anti-epileptic drug methsuximide (MSM) and its active metabolite N-desmethylmethsuximide (NDM) is presented. 5-Methyl-5-phenylhydantoin is used as the internal standard. A simple solid-phase extraction procedure utilizing disposable reversed-phase C18 columns is described. Samples are

1. Succinimide derivatives can be either convulsant (tetramethylsuccinimide (TMS)), or anticonvulsant (ethosuximide (ES); alpha-methyl-alpha-phenylsuccinimide (MPS)). ES, an anticonvulsant succinimide, has previously been shown to block calcium currents of thalamic neurones, while the convulsant succinimide TMS blocks gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) responses
