Anticonvulsant agent that is an allosteric antagonist at the NR2B subunit of the NMDA glutamate receptor; also has γ-aminobutyric acid (GABAA) receptor agonist properties.
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
Idiosyncratic drug reactions (IDR) are a specific type of drug toxicity characterized by their delayed onset, low incidence and reactive metabolite formation with little, if any, correlation between pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics and the toxicological outcome. As the name implies, IDR
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

We present an implementation of a method we previously reported allowing the newer antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) rufinamide (RFN) and zonisamide (ZNS) to be simultaneously determined with lamotrigine (LTG), oxcarbazepine's (OXC) main active metabolite monohydroxycarbamazepine (MHD) and felbamate (FBM) in plasma

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
