All it lists is an 'add on' medication that is being *researched in
Europe (Germany?). I didn't see any comment wrt. older people, vs.
any other people with seizures.
For those of us who have control with current things we use,
there's no incentive to move to another med. There may be other
types of intractable szrs. where this might work, but it only had a 3?
line comment about the med. Not a lot to go on without doing more
research (by the reader) to seek out other links that give more info.
on the pill you cited.
If it's in use in N.America for example, it should have a link
within http://efa.org medications site if it's a pill that has been
tested and approved for use. G./

And who has time to post 2344 times in 24 days? (This month so far
from profile of post I replied to.)
Guess I better start doing the Profile scan first before assuming
someone here is asking a real question. Other groups the 2000+ posts
went to were unrelated to seizures and epilepsy. //

HI Gaross, nice to write to you again.

I was just wondering, what is this new medicine being researched for
older people? You see I will be 50 years old next month and they are
using me as a guinea pig on a new medicine from Japan called
Perampanel. This drug is being researched in the UK on people like
me, although I haven't heard of the medicine being researched in
Germany yet.


Can you tell me, do you know what it is?
