vigabatrin and Epilepsy, Reflex

vigabatrin has been researched along with Epilepsy, Reflex in 3 studies

Epilepsy, Reflex: A subtype of epilepsy characterized by seizures that are consistently provoked by a certain specific stimulus. Auditory, visual, and somatosensory stimuli as well as the acts of writing, reading, eating, and decision making are examples of events or activities that may induce seizure activity in affected individuals. (From Neurol Clin 1994 Feb;12(1):57-8)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effect of systemic administration of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-transaminase inhibitor vigabatrin (VGB) on different components of convulsions was tested in the model of audiogenically kindled seizures, which consist of brainstem (running, tonus) and forebrain (clonus) elements."7.73Vigabatrin in low doses selectively suppresses the clonic component of audiogenically kindled seizures in rats. ( Kuznetsova, GD; Shatskova, AB; van Rijn, CM; Vinogradova, LV, 2005)

( Kuznetsova, GD; Shatskova, AB; van Rijn, CM; Vinogradova, LV, 2005)
"Treatment of vigabatrin (60 mg/kg/day, 7-14 days), an anti-seizure drug that inhibits the catabolism of GABA, not only blocked AGS, but also significantly attenuated the loudness response."1.40Loudness perception affected by early age hearing loss. ( Fu, Q; Kumaraguru, A; Li, J; Manohar, S; Sun, W; Zhang, C, 2014)
"However, it is unclear whether the conductive hearing loss caused by otitis media in early age will affect sound tolerance later in life."1.37Early age conductive hearing loss causes audiogenic seizure and hyperacusis behavior. ( Allman, B; Fu, Q; Jayaram, A; Kumaraguru, A; Li, J; Manohar, S; Sun, W, 2011)
