ABSTRACT
As a sizeable population is affected by epilepsy, so its effective management is a matter of concern. Newer anti-epileptic drugs are now in use, aimed at controls of seizure with fewer side-effects over and above the conventional anti-epileptic drugs. The anti-epileptic drugs can be divided in two groups--conventional anti-epileptic drugs and newer anti-epileptic drugs. The drugs which fall in the first group are--phenytoin, phenobaibitone, valproic acid, carbamazepine, ethosuximide and clonazepam. The second group of drugs are--lamotrigine, clobazam, oxcarbazepine, topiramate and gabapentin. The pharmacology of the drugs are described in a nutshell in this article.
