Perampanel is a non-competitive AMPA glutamate receptor antagonist used to treat partial-onset seizures with or without secondarily generalized seizures, and as adjunctive treatment of primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients with epilepsy.
The exact mechanism of action of perampanel in seizures is not yet determined, but it is known that perampanel decreases neuronal excitation by non-competitive ihibition of the AMPA receptor.
Perampanel is indicated for the treatment of partial-onset seizures with or without secondarily generalized seizures in epileptic patients four years of age and older. It is also indicated as an adjunct in the treatment of primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in epileptic patients aged 12 years and older.
