First line antiepileptic


1.Na Channel blocker, also inhibit Ca influx


Strong inducer of hepatic enzymes


High protein bound


X pregnancy

Lamotrigine

1.Na Channel blocker


X induce or inhibit hepatic enzymes at low dose


Choice for pregnant women


MOA:


1 block volt gated NA channel


2) inhibit glutamate release (excitatory NT)

Ethosuxmide

2.Calcium channel blockers


MOA: block channels, inhibit depolarization
