Phenytoin3

• Test tube studies indicate that ipriflavone might increase blood levels of the anticonvulsants phenytoin and carbamazepine when they are taken therapeutically. (epnet.com)
• First-line antiseizure medicines (phenobarbital, phenytoin, carbamazepine and valproic acid) are a highly cost-effective use of health resources. (who.int)
• 0.01), being carbamazepine (CBZ) and phenytoin (PHT), the AEDs showing the most prominent influence in reducing LTG plasma concentrations. (bvsalud.org)

Valproic acid1

• Other anticonvulsant agents include carbamazepine , phenobarbital , primidone , and valproic acid . (epnet.com)

Seizures1

• Additionally, phenobarbital is often the medication of choice for seizures in very young children. (rxlist.com)

Medicines2

• The annual cost of phenobarbital is as low as US$ 5 per person.2 All first-line medicines are included in the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. (who.int)
• Certain regulatory policies prevent wider use of antiseizure medicines, particularly phenobarbital. (who.int)

Drugs2

• During recent years, many antiepileptic into 3 groups: Group A had monotherapy drugs have been approved for pre- with carbamazepine. (who.int)
• Some bined therapy of carbamazepine and pheny- promising drugs are in various stages of toin and group C had no antiepileptic development and many are being tested to medication. (who.int)

Anticonvulsants1

• In 20 out of 21 patients in whom carbamazepine replaced sedative anticonvulsants seizure control was essentially similar or somewhat improved. (nih.gov)

Valproic1

• The effects of carbamazepine, valproic acid and phenobarbital on the oxidative and antioxidative balance in epileptic children. (nih.gov)

Anticonvulsant1

• We compared a 3 month baseline period (just prior to carbamazepine introduction or sedative anticonvulsant tapering), to a 3 month post-withdrawal period immediately following sedative anticonvulsant withdrawal, when carbamazepine was the sole anticonvulsant. (nih.gov)

Seizure control2

• Carbamazepine has been found to be relatively free of such effects, and would be an optimum alternative if seizure control were comparable. (nih.gov)
• In only one patient did the substitution with carbamazepine result in a loss of seizure control. (nih.gov)
