Antiepileptic Drugs

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 74))

Abstract

Although the mechanisms of anticonvulsant action remain uncertain, numerous physiological and biochemical correlates of such action have been documented, and it is possible that one or more of such correlates bears a causal (i.e., mechanistic) relationship with action. The physiological correlates of anticonvulsant action are discussed in Chap. 23; the present chapter will focus on biochemical correlates, with an analysis of the possible mechanistic significance of each.
