"Twenty-five patients with epilepsy (mostly with partial seizures) who had responded favourably to a short-term trial of add-on vigabatrin entered maintenance treatment."7.68Six-year follow-up study on the efficacy and safety of vigabatrin in patients with epilepsy. ( Galimberti, CA; Iudice, A; Manni, R; Morini, R; Mumford, JP; Perucca, E; Tartara, A, 1992)

"Clonic seizures were rare in NMDA-treated P25 rats, but valproate pretreatment increased their incidence significantly."5.36Vigabatrin but not valproate prevents development of age-specific flexion seizures induced by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) in immature rats. ( Kubová, H; Mares, P, 2010)
"The incidence of minimal, predominantly clonic seizures was not changed in any age group, but their latencies were prolonged in 18- and 25-day-old rats."5.31Does vigabatrin possess an anticonvulsant action against pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures in developing rats? ( Haugvicová, R; Kubová, H; Mares, P, 2002)

"Vigabatrin is an antiepileptic drug and may increase the intraretinal GABA level due to an inhibition of the enzyme GABA-transaminase and may induce an ascending simple optic nerve atrophy."1.32[Vigabatrin-associated bilateral simple optic nerve atrophy with visual field constriction. A case report and a survey of the literature]. ( Mardin, CY; Viestenz, A, 2003)
