General description

Retigabine, also known as ezogabine, is a new antiepileptic drug developed for treatment of partial seizures. The drug is marketed under the trade names Potiga in the US and Trobalt in the EU. This certified solution standard is suitable for use as starting material in calibrators and controls for LC/MS or GC/MS methods in clinical toxicology, forensic analysis, urine drug testing, pain prescription monitoring, or pharmaceutical research applications.

Ezogabine (Potiga; Valeant Pharmaceuticals/GlaxoSmithKline), a potassium channel opener, was approved in June 2011 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (F.D.A.) for the adjunctive treatment of partial-onset seizures in adult patients. The same drug was granted marketing authorization for this

Retigabine (ezogabine in the US) opens neuronal voltage-gated potassium channels, resulting in resting membrane potential stabilization, neuronal subthreshold excitability control and anticonvulsant effects. The clinical efficacy of adjunctive oral retigabine in adults with inadequately controlled, partial-onset seizures was demonstrated in

Expert review of neurotherapeutics, 12(5), 509-517 (2012-05-04)
Ezogabine/retigabine (RTG) is a novel antiepileptic compound that activates a voltage-sensitive neuronal-specific outward potassium current that decreases neuronal excitability. RTG has been evaluated in three pivotal placebo-controlled randomized trials as adjunctive therapy in adult drug-resistant partial epilepsy. In comparison to

Retigabine belongs to a new generation of antiepileptic drugs. Its mechanism of action is different from that previously known. Retigabine opens potassium channels of subfamily Kv 7, especially Kv 7.2 and Kv 7.3. The drug enhances GABA-ergic transmission. It is

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
