S-licarbazepine is an AED. Adjunctive eslicarbazepine led to seizure reduction in patients with severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy[1][2]

Pharmacy and chemistry

Eslicarbamazepine acetate is an once-daily antiepileptic that was approved in 2009 by the EMA (Zerebix TM) and recently by the American FDA[3] Eslicarbamazepine is the prodrug of S-licarbazepine, both oxcarbazapine and eslicarbazepine metabolize same, different to carbazepine; the latter metabolizes to CBZ 10,11-epoxide (Hainzl et al, 2001)[4]
