Eslicarbazepine: Pharmacokinetics and Drug Interactions

Abstract

Eslicarbazepine acetate is an advanced antiseizure medication that is an improvement upon carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine. This novel antiseizure medication regulates voltage-gated sodium channels and provides fewer adverse effects and better tolerability. Herein, we present the character-istics, pharmacokinetics, and drug interactions of eslicarbazepine acetate based on the research that has been conducted to date.
