felbamate and Kidney Failure, Chronic

felbamate has been researched along with Kidney Failure, Chronic in 2 studies

Felbamate: A PEGylated phenylcarbamate derivative that acts as an antagonist of NMDA RECEPTORS. It is used as an anticonvulsant, primarily for the treatment of SEIZURES in severe refractory EPILEPSY.
felbamate : The bis(carbamate ester) of 2-phenylpropane-1,3-diol. An anticonvulsant, it is used in the treatment of epilepsy.

Kidney Failure, Chronic: The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Since 1993, eight new antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) have become available in the United States for the treatment of epilepsy: felbamate, gabapentin, lamotrigine, topiramate, tiagabine, levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, and zonisamide."4.81Some common issues in the use of antiepileptic drugs. ( Asconapé, JJ, 2002)
"Compared with controls, apparent total body clearance, renal clearance and urinary excretion of felbamate were decreased, and half-life, Cmax and AUC values were increased in subjects with renal dysfunction."1.30Single-dose pharmacokinetics of felbamate in patients with renal dysfunction.
