Lalap 10mg Ml Syrup 100ml 1s

What it is used for: Epilepsy.

Indications as listed by the manufacturer: Lacosamide is indicated as a monotherapy in the treatment of partial-onset seizures in patients with epilepsy aged 17 years and older.

How it works: The precise mechanism by which Lacosamide exerts its antiepileptic effects in humans remains to be fully elucidated. In vitro electrophysiological studies have shown that lacosamide selectively enhances slow inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels, resulting in stabilization of hyperexcitable neuronal membranes and inhibition of repetitive neuronal firing. Lacosamide binds to collapsin response mediator protein-2 (CRMP-2), a phosphoprotein which is mainly expressed in the nervous system and is involved in neuronal differentiation and control of axonal doutgrowth. The role of CRMP-2 binding in seizure control is unknown.
