phaclofen and Seizures

phaclofen has been researched along with Seizures in 7 studies

phaclofen: peripheral & central baclofen & GABA antagonist; structure given in first source

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.
