ethosuximide has been researched along with Learning Disabilities in 5 studies
Ethosuximide: An anticonvulsant especially useful in the treatment of absence seizures unaccompanied by other types of seizures.
ethosuximide : A dicarboximide that is pyrrolidine-2,5-dione in which the hydrogens at position 3 are substituted by one methyl and one ethyl group. An antiepileptic, it is used in the treatment of absence seizures and may be used for myoclonic seizures, but is ineffective against tonic-clonic seizures.
Learning Disabilities: Conditions characterized by a significant discrepancy between an individual's perceived level of intellect and their ability to acquire new language and other cognitive skills. These may result from organic or psychological conditions. Relatively common subtypes include DYSLEXIA, DYSCALCULIA, and DYSGRAPHIA.

| " To test the effect of antiepileptic drugs on kindled seizures and kindling-induced learning deficits we injected ethosuximide, dipropylacetate, and phenobarbital prior to each kindling stimulation or after kindling completion, and tested these animals in a shuttle-box paradigm." | 3.69 | Antiepileptic drugs--their effects on kindled seizures and kindling-induced learning impairments. ( Becker, A; Brosz, M; Grecksch, G, 1995) |
| " However, dose-response studies showed that lower doses of CGP35348 that failed to influence atypical absence seizure activity, completely reversed the spatial working memory deficit." | 1.33 | GABAB receptor antagonism abolishes the learning impairments in rats with chronic atypical absence seizures. ( Burnham, WM; Chan, KF; Cortez, MA; Jia, Z; Snead, OC, 2006) |
