In this article the results of the study of focal observations of interchangeability of generic Konvuleksa to retard and original probe Depakine chrono on Valparin XR (production Torrent Pharmaceuticals, India) in patients with various forms of epilepsy. In focal observations was attended by 30 patients with focal forms of epilepsy: 17 men and 13 women aged 23 to 62 years with different disease duration and the presence of seizures, which differ according to the type and etiology. Based on these results it can be concluded that the transfer of patients with previous therapy Valparin XR generally accompanied by a stable level of seizure control.
Cognitive impairment of varying degrees of severity identified in patients with focal epilepsy in 40-50% of cases. The incidence and severity of cognitive impairment depends on the cause epileptic seizures, localization of the lesion, antiepileptic therapy, and other factors. It should be noted that the correction capability of cognitive disorders in patients with epilepsy are somewhat limited because number of drugs used for the treatment are in the instructions for use as contraindications and indications of use ostoozhnostyu in patients with epilepsy. This work reflects the results of a prospective uncontrolled focal observations efficiency NMDA-receptor antagonist: This drug memantine (Noodzheron). The study involved 50 patients with focal epilepsy and having symptoms of cognitive deficits of varying severity. Evaluating the effectiveness carried out in 2 months from the start of the reception, the dosage of 5.10 mg χ 1 time per day. After the treatment, a statistically significant improvement in cognitive function based on the results of tests: Mini-mental state examination, clock drawing test, the test Luria test “symbols and numbers.” Noodzheron taking the drug had no effect on the frequency of epileptic seizures.
Current work is dedicated to analysis of treatment with generic topiramate in monoas well as in polytherapy in patients with different forms of epilepsy. Forclinical assessmentsHospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), quality of life questionnaire for patients with epilepsy (QOLIE-10) and efficacy primary assessment based on decrease in frequency of seizures and adverse events before and after switching to generic topiramate were used. As a result of focus investigation switch to Topsaver was associated with maintenance of stable therapeutic effect in more, than 80% of cases. No negative dynamics in changes of HADS and QOLIE-10 points were observed.
this paper presents experience of using Vimpat in outpatient health care chain of Moscow. In the observational study were attended 49 patients with difficult for treatment focal forms of epilepsy (cryptogenic and symptomatic forms). Vimpat used in complex therapy in the mean effective dose of 300-400 mg per day. As a result, the data on a cohort of Russian patients showed that Vimpat demonstrate a sufficiently high clinical efficacy (55%, p
