未知生产厂商 • Lacosamide is indicated for the treatment of partial-onset seizures in patients aged one month and older and as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients aged four years and older.
Lacosamide is an antiepileptic drug used to treat partial onset seizures in adults.
It is proposed that lacosamide's inhibition of sodium channels is responsible for analgesia. Lacosamide may be selective for inhibiting depolarized neurons rather than neurons with normal resting potentials. Pain and nociceptor hyperexcitability are associated with neural membrane depolarization. Lacosamide binds to collapsin response mediator protein-2 (CRMP-2), a phosphoprotein which is expressed primarily in the nervous system and is involved in neuronal differentiation and control of axonal outgrowth. The role CRMP-2 of binding in seizure control is hasn't been elucidated.
