  • Title: Effects of felbamate and other anticonvulsant drugs in two models of status epilepticus in the rat.
    Author: Sofia RD, Gordon R, Gels M, Diamantis W.
    Journal: Res Commun Chem Pathol Pharmacol; 1993 Mar; 79(3):335-41. PubMed ID: 8480078.
    Abstract:
    Felbamate was compared with several antiepileptic drugs for protective effects in two rat models of status epilepticus. Felbamate was ten times more potent against pilocarpine-induced seizures in lithium-treated rats than in lithium-free animals. Diazepam, valproate and phenobarbital were effective in both the high dose pilocarpine and lithium-pilocarpine models. On the other hand, phenytoin was ineffective in both models, whereas carbamazepine displayed protective effects only in the lithium-pilocarpine model.
