Mary L Zupanc et al.
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

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

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

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.
Huai-Ren Chang et al.
Biophysical journal, 93(2), 456-466 (2007-05-01)
The anticonvulsant effect of felbamate (FBM) is ascribable to inhibition of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) currents. Using electrophysiological studies in rat hippocampal neurons to examine the kinetics of FBM binding to and unbinding from the NMDA channel, we show that FBM modifies
