[Anticonvulsant action of pargyropyranone in various models of experimental epilepsy in the cat].

Abstract

The new anticonvulsant drug pargypiranone was studied in different models of experimental epilepsy in cat (penicillin and Premarin cortical focus, cobalt cortical focus, penicillin generalized epilepsy). The drug proved to possess a strong anticonvulsant effect upon focal electroclinical phenomena and a poor effect on penicillin generalized epilepsy. It seems probably that pargypyranone has a valid effect on partial epileptic seizures.
