ABSTRACT
With the rapid aging of the population, elderly epilepsy probably becomes one of the most common forms of epilepsy. Lacosamide, brivaracetam, eslicarbazepine acetate, and perampanel have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for monotherapy and (or) adjunctive treatment of seizures in the last few years. This review summarizes the efficacy and tolerability of third-generation anti-seizure medications in elderly epilepsy patients and introduces the effects of anti-seizure medications on cognitive function and mood, as well as drug-drug interactions, aiming to provide a reliable basis for clinicians to choose third-generation anti-seizure medications.
