:Vigabatrin
Description:
Vigabatrin is an antiepileptic medication primarily used to treat refractory complex partial seizures and infantile spasms. It is classified as a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) analogue and functions by irreversibly inhibiting the enzyme GABA transaminase, leading to increased levels of GABA in the brain, which enhances inhibitory neurotransmission. Vigabatrin is typically administered orally and is known for its unique mechanism of action compared to other antiepileptic drugs. The substance is a white to off-white crystalline powder, and it is soluble in water, which facilitates its absorption in the body. Common side effects may include visual field defects, drowsiness, and fatigue, necessitating regular monitoring of patients' vision during treatment. Due to its potential for serious side effects, vigabatrin is usually prescribed when other treatments have failed. Its chemical formula is C8H15NO2, and it has a molecular weight that reflects its structure as a small organic molecule. Overall, vigabatrin represents a critical option in the management of certain seizure disorders.
