PharmacoEconomics, 31(2), 101-110 (2013-01-24)
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) invited the manufacturer of retigabine (GlaxoSmithKline) to submit evidence for the clinical and cost effectiveness of this drug for the treatment of adults with partial-onset seizures in epilepsy, with and without

Retigabine represents an antiepileptic drug possessing a completely different mechanism of action when compared to the existing classical and newer antiepileptic drugs. In the therapeutic range, retigabine enhances potassium currents, very likely via destabilization of a closed conformation or stabilization

Seizure, 21(9), 665-678 (2012-08-21)
Retigabine (RTG) is now approved in Europe and the US for the adjunctive treatment of partial-onset seizures in adults with epilepsy. To support submissions to EU reimbursement authorities, we explored its efficacy and tolerability relative to selected antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).

Ezogabine, also known as retigabine, is a recently approved anticonvulsant medication with a novel mechanism of action. It activates low-threshold voltage-gated potassium channels, leading to hyperpolarization of the membrane potential, stabilization of the resting membrane potential, and suppression of repetitive
G Blackburn-Munro et al.
CNS drug reviews, 11(1), 1-20 (2005-05-04)
Retigabine [D23129; N-(2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino)-phenyl)carbamic acid ethyl ester] is an antiepileptic drug with a recently described novel mechanism of action that involves opening of neuronal K(V)7.2-7.5 (formerly KCNQ2-5) voltage-activated K(+) channels. These channels (primarily K(V)7.2/7.3) enable generation of the M-current, a subthreshold
